I’m writing to provide broad communication in response to the questions that many of you and your faculty have been bringing to the Office of Research related to recent Executive Orders. 

An evaluation of agency’s policy and priorities is expected with every new administration. This process has happened across the federal government with every new administration and president. Absolutely, we are concerned that there are significant disruptions and uncertainty to all efforts on federal grants and contracts. We are actively monitoring the situation and how each agency works on the transition. Where there are impacts on current awards, such as travel freezes, we will provide updates. While there may be pauses on study section review, proposal and submission continues based on published sponsor due dates. 

Researchers can send description of any impacts to them to research@uw.edu
