Precisely. If you already have $1M from which 550k went to administration assuming 55% overhead, and $450k went to the professor, now that the overhead is reduced to 15% now only 150k goes to administration and $850k to the professor.

This is incorrect. The university does not get an additional $550,000. In a $1M example the university gets $550k and the researcher gets $450k. With the 15% overhead cut, wouldn’t the researcher get now $850k and the university $150k? (ie benefiting the researcher)?

My question is: if you get $1M grant now the university will get $150,000 and the researcher $850,000 with a rate of 15%? Because the total will not change.

My colleagues Geoff Kaufman and @cotyg.bsky.social @carnegiemellon.bsky.social use a game to show humans can learn social norms from bots about responding to bias incidents at work. We found offensive (vs responsible) bot responses leads to more offensive human responses and hostility afterward.
