Reminder of Your Responsibilities in Upholding Civil Rights<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve published many posts discussing the importance of diversity in the workforce. However, one related aspect we haven\u2019t yet discussed here is how you can, and do, contribute to protecting the civil rights for all individuals, and eliminating barriers and providing equal access to activities supported by NIH funds. Before NIH makes an award to an applicant organization, the organization enters an agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) that the institution, as well as any researchers and key personnel supported by NIH funding, will comply with Federal laws that prohibit discrimination on the basis of \u2026.\u00a0Continue reading\u00a0\u2192<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Rock Talk ceases talking as of today, but someone else will be talking, so please keep your bookmarks active and stay tuned for continued dialog with NIH. I want to thank all of you for a conversation worth having and for making the last portion of my federal career spectacular. I am grateful that I have had the opportunity to know and interact with many of you, which was hands down the highlight of my travels around town and across the country to learn first-hand \u2026.\u00a0Continue reading\u00a0\u2192<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

All About Indirect Costs<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Posted on\u00a0September 11, 2015<\/u><\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0Sally Rockey<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

When I started Rock Talk, one of my goals was to lift the curtain on NIH decision-making and to demystify NIH policies and processes. One topic that I have talked endlessly about throughout my tenure is indirect costs (IDCs). Indirect costs generate almost more discussion than any other topic and there are many misunderstandings about them. Comments and questions reflect a range of perspectives, such as: \u201cIndirect costs are rising all the time and eating up funds that could go for research.\u201d and \u201cWhy can\u2019t NIH reduce the rate of indirect costs?\u201d. Others have asked us, \u201cNIH \u2013 please get rid of the 26% cap in administrative indirect costs!\u201d or simply want to know \u2026.\u00a0Continue reading\u00a0\u2192<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Core Facts About Core Facilities<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Posted on\u00a0September 10, 2015<\/u><\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0Sally Rockey<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Today, I\u2019d like to blog about some interesting discussions and dispel some myths related to NIH-supported core facilities. Core facilities are important research resources, providing access to advanced instrumentation and technologies operated by experts. Cores provide opportunities to be hubs of innovation at an institution, connecting scientists with the tools and expertise that can take their research projects to the next level. In March, NIH co-hosted a workshop with the Association of Biomolecular Research Facilities to discuss core facility management and strategies for increasing core facility efficiency. The meeting resulted in a set of recommendations for NIH and institutions to consider, and a report from the workshop is now available, if you\u2019d like to read more. In addition, the presenters\u2019 slides are posted on the workshop website, and each session was recorded and can be viewed online. Much of the workshop discussion involved core resource sharing and NIH\u2019s policies on sharing of cores. NIH actively encourages \u2026.\u00a0Continue reading\u00a0\u2192<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Applications to NIH Loan Repayment Programs Accepted through Nov. 16<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Education is the foundation of our nation\u2019s biomedical research enterprise. However, it goes without saying that a college education is expensive. Post-graduate education is even more expensive, with the average cost of medical, veterinary, and dental school totaling more than $200,000. In exchange for a commitment to conduct biomedical or behavioral research, NIH will repay up to $70,000 of student loan debt (over two years) per two-year contract through the NIH Loan Repayment Programs (LRPs).Want to know more? Here\u2019s how the NIH LRPs can help. \u2026.\u00a0Continue reading\u00a0\u2192<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n
