“F&A expenditures pay for services that every OSU researcher needs. For every $2 spent supporting OSU researchers at the bench and in the field, an additional $1 is needed to pay for utilities, computer services, libraries and support staff. F&A expenditures are essential to operating in a competitive research environment.”
