Grant suspension guidance
Due to the suspension of research grant awards at UCLA, the University has developed guidance for colleagues across the system involved in research activities with UCLA, including co-PIs, sub-awardees, or potential applicants for future federal funding.
Frequently Asked Questions
The information below is being shared as general guidance, created to assist you as you navigate this evolving situation. We ask that all UC locations have patience and understanding when working with UCLA on any contracts and grants issues, including subawards.
I am a principal investigator preparing a proposal. Should I still submit?
Yes. All UC researchers and principal investigators, including those at UCLA, should continue to submit proposals to the federal government, including NSF, NIH, and DOE.
I am considering collaboration with UCLA. Should I move forward, given the circumstances?
All UC researchers should continue to collaborate and partner with UCLA researchers, to ensure the best research outcomes.
My campus is a sub-awardee to an active UCLA project. Should I, and my graduate students, continue working?
The only grants impacted by these announcements are those on this list. All impacted sister campus sub awardees have already been contacted by UCLA’s Office of Contracts and Grant Administration Office. If you work on an impacted grant, please contact your PI. If you are the PI on a subaward from UCLA and questions remain, your Sponsored Projects Office will be available to assist.
UCLA is a sub-awardee to my active project. What instructions should I provide those investigators?
The federal government has suspended only those awards made directly to UCLA that appear on this list. You should continue to pursue your research as originally planned, including the work of your sub-awardee wherever they may work.
