Intent to Submit: Quick Reference Guide

What is Intent to Submit (I2S) and how can it help me?

I2S is Duke's required process to connect researchers with offices and people that can support them during proposal development and submission.  This process is in place so that researchers can more easily understand and meet requirements and internal deadlines, and learn of helpful resources and services.

  1. PIs or someone acting on their behalf should log-in to myRESEARCHhome
  2. Select the "Submit a Request" dropdown menu
