Well, get ready to join over 60 NIH & HHS experts at the 2017 NIH Regional Seminar on Program Funding and Grants Administration, taking place May 3-5, 2017 in the heart of New Orleans, Louisiana. If you are already a seasoned administrator or researcher, then share the news with your colleagues! Early Registration Rates end March 3, so act now!
Join Us at the Seminar
The NIH Regional Seminar is the ideal place to gain a better understanding of the NIH Grants Process and Policies. Get the latest news and updates on Clinical Trials, Diversity in Extramural Research, Rigor & Reproducibility, electronic Research Administration, Contracts, a Mock Study Section Meeting, Intellectual Property, NIH Programs, Grants Compliance, Humans and Animals in Research, and so much more. (Check out even more samples on the New Orleans website “Welcome” page.)
In addition to the two-day seminar, this year we have seven pre-seminar workshops! These opportunities include a full day workshop from the Office of Human Research Protections (OHRP) and OER, as well as half day workshops provided by the Office of Policy for Extramural Research Administration (OPERA), electronic Research Administration (eRA), and the Division of Extramural Inventions & Technology Resources (DEITR).
For full details on these workshops and the full agenda for the seminar, please visit our website at https://regionalseminars.od.nih.gov/neworleans2017/.
If the dates don’t work for you in New Orleans, the final 2017 NIH Regional Seminar will be held in Baltimore, MD, October 25-27. Registration for Baltimore opens soon.
