By changing there Grant Guidlines
http://www.thisisms.com/ftopict-9231.html
When refering to the above thread you see that I sent the Society an email regarding my concern of the limit of 100,000c for the CCSVI research.
their response was to remove the following from Item 17 of the FAQ for Grant Guidlines.
Yesterday Dec 10,2009 it read
Item #17 FAQ
17 DO OPERATING GRANTS HAVE A MAXIMUM BUDGET/TIME PERIOD THAT CAN BE APPLIED FOR?
No, there is no maximum budget. However, the reveiw committee generally approves a grant for $100,000 CDN per year. New grants are usually funded for a maximum of two years; renewals are considered for three years.
This morning I am reviewing the Guidlines, Today Dec 11,2009 item #17 reads
