Share Your Thoughts on How to Re-envision NIH Supported Postdoctoral Training
Post-docs – and those of you who interact and work with post-docs: We want to hear from you! In November 2022, NIH announced the creation of a new Working Group (WG) to the Advisory Committee to the Director (ACD) on re-envisioning NIH-supported post-doctoral training. The most recent concerns surrounding post-doctoral (“post-doc”) training involve numbers, including the numbers of post-docs and the number of available tenure-track faculty positions. Recent data from NSF suggest a substantial decline in post-doc numbers, coming at a time of pandemic stresses, global economic disruptions, and concerns surrounding sala...

Take Advantage of Our Many Resources for Enhancing the Rigor of Animal Research
“Despite the numerous successes stemming from animal research, concerning reports over the past decade have described biomedical experiments that fail to replicate or to translate in ways that improve human health. All research is not expected to translate to human treatments, as there is no perfect model. Scientific process is as much about failure as it is about success. Yet part of the scientific process is also continual improvement, which includes working to understand what might contribute to unexpected outcomes within animal research.” The Advisory Committee to the NIH Director (ACD) expressed that view in their...

Helping You Comply with the Data Management and Sharing Policy Through eRA System Validations
No one wants to find out they’ve missed a requirement when it’s too late to do anything about it.   Our eRA Systems (e.g., ASSIST, eRA Commons) perform several business rule validations to support our Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy implementation. The validations ensure the DMS Plan, associated budget line item, and budget justification are included when the DMS Policy applies and are not included when it doesn’t.  By flagging each active funding opportunity announcement (FOA) as requiring a Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Plan or not, we are able to compare opportunity expectations against your applic...
