Federal Research Update - Message from Vice President of Research Stacey Patterson
Dear Colleagues,
Many of you may now be aware of the White House decision to pause all federal assistance that may conflict with recent executive orders. There are still many questions about what this will look like for the long term. Please be assured that the FSU administration, including our government relations team located in Washington D.C., is working diligently to understand the impacts of this decision and how it will affect our work going forward. On Friday, the Division of Research created a dedicated webpage where we will post updates and resources as new information is available from the federal level.
We have published updates organized by specific guidance by agency to allow you to simply navigate the relevant information from your sponsors. We encourage you to review this page and any pages associated with your specific programs.
Researchers should expect limited communication from federal agencies until this transition is complete.
If a program officer reaches out to you directly, please notify Kerry Peluso, Associate Vice President for Research Administration and Finance (kpeluso@fsu.edu) as soon as possible so we can assist you.
If you have any questions or need further clarification, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly.
Kind regards,
Stacey S. Patterson, Ph.D.
Vice President for Research
