When a professor applies for $1 they get $1 and ~$0.50 extra goes to univ to help defray the cost of all the infrastructure the prof uses. Office s-ace, electricity, libraries…

Yes it was a remarkable innovation in the 1940s. Suddenly universities decided it was worth supporting faculty research. One of the most creative win-win incentives ever.

Think of it as mining fees or gas, but for much more expensive infrastructure.

I’m not getting it. NIH gives out direct grants and attached to that the university can bill for overhead? That’s the innovation?
