The purpose of this Notice is to correct RFA-CA-10-017, "Scientific Meetings for Creating Interdisciplinary Research Teams in Basic Behavioral and Social Science Research (R13)," by eliminating the requirement for a "Permission-to-Submit Letter" from the appropriate NIH Institute or Center (IC) Conference Grant Contact. No such "Permission-to-Submit Letter" is required in order to submit an application.

Thus, in Section IV.2 Content and Form of Application Submission of RFA-CA-10-017, the last item in the block subtitled "Required Components" is changed from:

"PHS398 Cover Letter File, including Permission-to-Submit Letter from appropriate IC Conference Grant Contact"

to

"PHS398 Cover Letter File."

All other aspects of RFA-CA-10-017 remain unchanged.
