Communications from the Chief Scientific Officer

Dear colleagues,

Please note the NIH No Cost Extension update shared on Wednesday by Missy Peloso (below). Because NCE requests require more information and need additional time for review, please submit as early as possible to avoid interruption of your project. Please discuss the process with your departmental business/grant administrator or reach out to ORS for any questions.

Thank you,

Mike
