              <p>Dear Colleagues:<br>
                <br>
                The National Science Foundation is currently working to
                finalize a revised <em>Proposal and Award Policies and
                  Procedures Guide</em> (PAPPG) for use in 2020. We
                anticipate that the revised PAPPG will be released in
                the coming months and, as is standard practice, will be
                effective 90 days after its release. <br>
                <br>
                We wanted to highlight some important information to
                assist the community in preparing for this new PAPPG as
                it relates to the preparation and submission of the
                Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support
                sections of NSF proposals that fall under this revised
                PAPPG.<br>
