OSP's chat session for December will be held on Tuesday, December 14, from 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. in Holmes Student Center, Heritage Room. A number of new NSF policies have been put in place over the past year including the requirement for the training in the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) and the requirement for a post-doc mentoring plan. Additional changes will be effective for NSF proposals submitted on or after January 18, 2011, including the need for a data management plan and an additional PI reporting requirement. This session will walk through these policy changes and provide information necessary to help assist PIs in navigating these new requirements.
