For those of you who submit grants to federal agencies, this email is for you!!

UC continues to strive for 100% compliance with federal regulations pertaining to sponsored funding from all federal agencies. The UC policy: Conflict of Interest on Federally Sponsored Projects (1.3.2) requires all investigators who are faculty or staff to ensure that their Outside Activity Report (OAR) is updated prior to submitting any application for funding to The Office of Sponsored Research Services (SRS).

NEW:   SRS must confirm prior to proposal submission for Investigators and Multiple Investigators for NIH, Primary and Co-Investigators for NSF and all other federal agencies listed on an application that a current fiscal year OAR has been completed and is on file in the Office of the General Counsel before the application can be submitted.
