Following several weeks of an agency-wide embargo of communications, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Extramural Research (OER) resumed releasing information to assist grant applicants and awardees navigate grant administration policies. While early posts reiterated resources available to assist researchers in preparing NIH grant applications and tips for using the eRA Commons system. On March 25, OER announced the availability of a new NIH Grants and Funding Information Status webpage that lists information regarding recent and forthcoming changes that affect new applications and reports on existing awards. Applicants and awardees are encouraged to bookmark and refer to this resource to ensure they are using the most current information regarding applications and reporting requirements.
