So when you look at our budget, um, or our award amount, that's why we're carving out a much smaller piece in the fall for those new ideas, areas that align to those focus. And the larger award to care for the facility renovations, the continuing applications, and a smaller portion for those new ideas in the spring. Anything to add? No, I think, I think that's helpful.
