Dear Colleagues:

We are pleased to announce that a revised version of the NSF /Proposal & 
Award Policies & Procedures Guide/ 
<https://www.eiseverywhere.com/emarketing/go.php?i=603642&e=c2NsaWZmb3JkQHdob2kuZWR1&l=https://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp%7CQ%7Cods_key%7CE%7Cnsf19001>(PAPPG), 
(NSF 19-1) has been issued.

The new PAPPG will be effective for *proposals submitted, or due, on or 
after January 28, 2019*. Significant changes include:

  * Addition of Research.gov as an option for proposal preparation and
    submission, and proposal file updates;
  * Revision of eligibility standards for unaffiliated individuals;
  * Specification that conference proposals over $50,000 and all
    equipment proposals must include the Collaborators and Other
    Affiliations information in the proposal submission;
  * Revision of resubmission guidelines for NSF programs that accept
    proposals at any time;
  * Implementation of NSF’s policy on sexual harassment and other forms
    of harassment, or sexual assault;
  * Specification that proposers are required to have a policy or
    code-of-conduct that addresses sexual harassment, other forms of
    harassment, and sexual assault, and that includes clear and
    accessible means of reporting violations of the policy or
    code-of-conduct. This policy or code-of-conduct must be disseminated
    to conference participants prior to attendance at the conference as
    well as made available at the conference itself;
  * Emphasis on the importance of training faculty in the responsible
    and ethical conduct of research;
  * Incorporation of existing patent policy into the PAPPG. This policy
    was previously implemented by regulation at 45 CFR 650; and
  * Numerous clarifications and other changes throughout the document.

You are encouraged to review the by-chapter summary of changes provided 
in the Introduction section of the PAPPG.

A webinar to brief the community on the new PAPPG will be held on 
*November 27 at 2 PM EST*. For additional information about the webinar, 
including how to register for it, visit:

While this version of the PAPPG becomes effective on January 28, 2019, 
in the interim, the guidelines contained in the current PAPPG (NSF 18-1) 
continue to apply. We will ensure that the current version of the PAPPG 
remains on the NSF website, with a notation to proposers that specifies 
when the new PAPPG (including a link to the new Guide) will become 
effective.

If you have any questions regarding these changes, please contact the 
Policy Office at policy at nsf.gov <mailto:policy at nsf.gov>.

Regards,
The National Science Foundation
