STEPS TO SUBMIT THE FINAL PROGRESS REPORT .PDF FORM

1. The final abstract (Executive Summary) is the same .pdf progress report form used for your quarterly reports, and is due 30 days after the project termination date, along with a comprehensive final report.
2. This final abstract should be an executive summary of the comprehensive report and provide a non-technical abstract and summary of results and outcomes of the project.  It should NOT include proprietary information, and should be detailed enough without compromising the PI’s ability to publish to protect IP.
3. The final abstract will allow CRDF and the broader industry to understand the progress toward the objectives of the project and subsequent research or products developed as a result.
