A subaward is a mechanism used when a substantive portion of the research is to be conducted by a third party, such as a collaborator at another university, hospital, non-profit, museum, or business. It is a contractual agreement between the Prime (lead) Recipient and the Subrecipient (third party). The subaward details the terms and conditions under which the research will be conducted, and includes a statement of work and budget specific to the Subrecipient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
