亲爱的同事们,

我希望你们都度过了一个愉快的周末，并有机会享受波士顿春天的第一个迹象。

以下是自我上次发言以来联邦政府最新澳门威尼斯人注册行动的更新和指导。 一如既往，如果有任何问题，请随时与我联系。

The federal 澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究终止 grants that fund active scientific projects because they no longer meet “agency priorities” has begun in earnest. NIH staff members are identifying and cancelling grants that include terminology such as “transgender, gender identity, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), and environmental justice” although “DEI” remains undefined. 联邦资助者也在确定和取消可能被认为是基于种族或民族歧视的资助。 This has led to a drastic reduction of U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) projects which 对全国的大学产生了重大影响 and for aid recipients around the world. 约翰霍普金斯大学去年总收入的近一半来自联邦资助的澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究，其中包括来自美国国际开发署的3.65亿美元。 The organization 美国国际开发署停工 is tracking the layoffs and estimates that 14,000 domestic workers have lost their jobs so far, with thousands more anticipated.

《纽约时报》指出，“特朗普政府还针对特定学校进行了削减。” It 削减4亿美元 from Columbia’s budget last week based on accusations that it had failed to protect students and faculty from antisemitism. 约翰霍普金斯大学和哥伦比亚大学都在10所学校的名单上，政府表示，这些学校正在接受行政部门反犹太主义特别工作组的审查。 On March 10, the U.S. Department of 教育’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) also 发送信件 to 60 institutions of higher education warning them of potential enforcement actions if they do 不 fulfill their obligations under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act to protect Jewish students on campus, including uninterrupted access to campus facilities and educational opportunities. 这些信件是写给目前因违反第六章有关反犹太骚扰和歧视而接受调查的所有美国大学的。 波士顿大学也在名单上。

The NIH is expected to cut between 3,400 and 5,000 positions from its workforce of 20,000 in coming days, according to NIH employees who spoke with STAT and 《科学》报道, as well as the trade publication 政府行政. This comes before President Trump’s nominee for NIH commissioner, 杰伊·巴塔查里亚, has been confirmed by the Senate.

波士顿大学领导层和我们的联邦关系团队正在密切关注新的指令，以评估它们对我们社区的意义。 A newly launched 信息中心 aims to keep our community informed about how directives and policies from the executive branch are being implemented at BU, with links to frequently asked questions about federally funded research; 多样性、公平和包容（DEI）； 还有移民和安全问题。

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 不 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. Check for updates on the University’s 澳门威尼斯人注册2025年行政过渡的最新在线资源.

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.

在我们的澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究人员寻求其他资金来源的同时，波士顿大学基金会关系（波士顿大学 Foundation Relations， FR）团队帮助澳门威尼斯人注册网站澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究人员从私人慈善基金会和非政府组织获得礼物和赠款。  该小组在寻求资助过程的三个关键阶段提供服务和资源。 澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究ers can work with Foundation Relations at any point in the process (see their 网站 for further details), but here are some ways to begin, according to David 道路, Senior Director, Foundation Relations (FR), at the 波士顿大学 Medical Campus, dgillerm@bu.edu。

  1. 识别确定最有可能支持你工作的资助者
    • FR为个别澳门威尼斯人注册网站澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究项目进行定制澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究。  See their 联系人列表 to determine which member of the FR staff is assigned to your academic department and available to assist you
    • FR 早期职业路线图 show funding opportunities specific to early career faculty. 这些都是定制的需求，以突出适合您的兴趣节目。
    • FR can provide access to 基金会捐款人名册 so that you can do your own research.  
    1. 培养：帮助你与基金会澳门威尼斯人注册建立学院关系，他们可以提供申请奖助金的建议。
      • 提交前与基金会官员的会议通常会产生更有效的提案。  FR会尽力为你安排这些会议。
      • “与资助者见面” events are webinars in which groups of BU faculty meet for conversations with foundation representatives. FR提前一个月公布这些内容，并在我们的网站上存档录音。
      • 征集：准备和提交申请本身。
      • “成功提案库” has examples of proposals BU faculty have submitted successfully to dozens of different foundations.
      • FR将编辑调查信和建议，以忠实于资助者的指导方针，并将对其进行校对。

            我还想强调即将到来的与社区互动的机会：

            最后，我想对大家表示感谢。 感谢您在困难时期为学校的发展所做的一切。 请知道，你们的努力不会被忽视，我现在比以往任何时候都更自豪地成为BUSPH社区的一员。

            谢谢你,

            迈克尔•斯坦
