亲爱的同事们,

早上好。 又一个天堂的星期(讽刺)。

以下是本周联邦澳门威尼斯人注册行动的最新进展和指导。 一如既往,如果有任何问题,请随时与我联系。

  • Judge Kelly of the U.S. District Court for Massachusetts has written her final opinion on the administration’s attempt to cap payments for 间接成本, facility and administrative expenses associated with research. 她认为,这一举动违反了《行政程序法》(Administrative Procedure Act),这是一部联邦法律,规定了各机构如何执行新规定,而且“武断和反复无常”,“没有遵循通知和评论程序”,而且“具有不允许的追溯效力”。 现在,我们进入政府与学术澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究利益相关者之间法律斗争的下一个引人注目的章节。
  • This week, scientists and health groups 起诉 NIH over the termination of grants and disruptions to grant review, and on Friday 16 state attorneys general filed a 几乎相同的诉讼.
  • Federal cuts have 给马萨诸塞州造成了超过15亿美元的经济损失和6713个澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究工作岗位, according to Science & Community Impacts Mapping Project.
  • In February, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services 删除了性取向和性别认同问题from enrollment forms for Medicare beneficiaries, and 性别认同 from the records of Veterans Health Administration patients. On March 21, the Department of Health and Human Services announced 它不会强制执行 requirements that electronic health records have fields to record and exchange patients’ sexual orientation and 性别认同 for 私人医疗保险 The new standards were set to be enforced by January 1 next year.
  • To read an interesting 文章 on just one effect of the decline in public health funding, see what’s happening in gonorrhea testing and treatment.
  • NIH has an Extramural 澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究 网站 a useful page regarding 实现 of the Administration’s initiatives, with updates on applications and reporting
  • 卫生与公众服务部定期更新已终止的卫生与公众服务部政府拨款跟踪问责制(TAGGS)拨款清单。 The 网站 is functional mostly, and a link to the list is 在这里.
  • 如果你想亲自了解NIH的哪些澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究部门和咨询委员会正在安排中,你可以在这里查看来自NIH的联邦公报更新:https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/national-institutes-of-health 
  • An additional resource related to Federal data: 查找联邦信息和数据.

BU资源和更新:

  • The Office of 澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究 has published a detailed set of 指导方针 for managing early grant termination; 访问指导文件需要BU登录。 The link is also posted on the Office of 澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究 2025行政过渡信息与资源.
  • The BU Federal Relations 网站 has an 讲解员 about the FY2025 Continuing Resolution. 它详细说明了美国国立卫生澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究院和国会指导的医学澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究计划(CDRMP)在25财年剩余时间的预算。
  • Guidance from the University 赞助项目办公室 remains unchanged. 如果pi对联邦拨款不再续期、停止工作指令或资金“暂停”通知有任何担忧,请直接向院长麦克林咨询。 PIs should take personnel actions in response to anticipated federal funding disruptions without prior consultation with and approval from Sponsored Programs, which Dean McClean will help facilitate.
  • New 澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究 Security Training Requirement for DOE-sponsored调查人员 to be completed by May 1, 2025 and for 所有其他澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究人员 to be completed by June 30, 2025. 波士顿大学 has adopted the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) Program’s 澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究及保安训练(综合) course to meet the DOE training requirement. 四个模块的培训大约需要一个小时,内容包括介绍澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究安全、披露的重要性、风险缓解和管理以及国际合作。

波士顿大学财政控制的最新情况

  • 在26财年,教职员工和非工会员工没有加薪
  • 由于预算限制,学术澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究工作类别的职位将不符合26财年的绩效增加资格。  唯一的例外是那些在现在到2025年6月30日之间获得连任的澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究人员。
  • All labor requests, travel, and external consultants on 不受限制的资金(学校资金)和自由支配的资金continue to fall under the budget controls and a request for approval is required. Please direct any questions to the Associate Dean for Administration and Finance, Dean Lazic at iralazic@bu.edu.

最后,这里有一些即将到来的参与机会:

感谢你们以新的合作精神走到一起,感谢你们在这个充满挑战的时期所做的出色工作。

Michael Stein
Dean ad interim
