Virtual Office Hour: Biological Research and Tribal Nations

About this event

A change to the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG, NSF 24-1), which went into effect on May 20, 2024, alters the requirements for proposals and awards that impact the resources or interests of a federally recognized American Indian or Alaska Native Tribal Nation (see Chapter II.E.10).

To help inform the community about these changes and their potential impacts on biological sciences research, the NSF Directorate for Biological Sciences (BIO) held a Virtual Office Hour on July 23, 2024 from 2:00 to 3:00 pm ET.

BIO staff was joined by staff from NSF's Policy Office, Office of the Director, and Directorate for STEM Education to outline the new requirements.

All members of the biological sciences community should feel welcome to attend as the session will attempt to cover the impact on a variety of biological subdisciplines. Individuals from outside the biological sciences are also welcome.

The event was recorded and the video, transcript, and slides are linked below.
