From the transcript

So in year 2 and going forward, we're trying to build those questions into the application from the start so that we can reduce the amount of back and forth that we have with applicants and additional follow-up questions that we have after you've submitted. And finally, I want to highlight that there will be 2 funding cycles per year, and we'll be publishing that calendar in advance. So as you're developing your ideas and thinking about what your organization is prepared to do and what you'd like to do. You— not every project has to be put into every cycle. You can think about, you know, we're working on this now, we may not be ready to apply in this moment, but next year or 6 months from now, that may be a better opportunity.
