Webinar ID: 823-936-451

The Federal grant funding landscape has undergone significant changes, creating uncertainty for many researchers and academic institutions. The recent Executive Orders (EOs) signed over the last 8 months have directed agencies to implement sweeping changes to how federal discretionary funding is managed. The recent changes have led to increased scrutiny of federal grants, terminations of existing grant programs, and on again/off again terminations and stop-work orders on existing and new awards. This webinar will elaborate how Presidential directives and policy shifts have affected academia and specifically CUNY, including proposed changes in indirect costs. It’s important to note that while challenges exist, federal funding has not disappeared. Agencies are working to interpret and implement new guidance, and some funding streams are beginning to resume and there are alternative funding sources available. We will also provide you with advice and guidance in this webinar, and on what to do if your grant or funding program is eliminated.

Presenters: Welcoming remarks by Rosemarie Wesson, CUNY Associate Vice Chancellor and University Vice Provost for Research, John Tsapogas, Director of Award Pre-Proposal Support (APPS) RFCUNY, and Kondomar Herrera, Project Manager, President’s Office, RFCUNY
