Key Points Notice reflects NIH’s continued concerns regarding foreign influence and imposes significant new compliance obligations on both grantees and individual researchers. Obligates grantees to provide NIH with copies of researcher agreements with institutions located outside the U.S. and requires researchers to individually certify the accuracy of information provided to NIH. Effective May 25, 2021, universities and research institutions will be required to use updated Biographical Sketch and Other Support forms in National Institutes of Health (NIH) applications and Research Performance Progress Reports (RPRRs). Please click here to read the entire notice. NIH explains that the intent of the changes is “to support the need for applicants and recipients to provide full transparency and disclosure of all research activities, foreign and domestic.” Although the updated forms are in some ways directionally consistent with NIH’s recent disclosure expectations and guidance, they impose some potentially significant compliance burdens and risks on institutions and individual researchers.
