Resumption of Operations at the National Science Foundation

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is emerging from a 35-day funding lapse in appropriations and shutdown of the agency. Unfortunately, the recent lapse resulted in missed panels, a backlog of proposal actions and delays that may result in the cancelation of related activities and certain programs.
As they resume operations, they advise proposers, awardees and reviewers to await communications from NSF.

In addition, the impact on existing due dates was updated on Jan. 25 to specify that NSF will be extending certain deadline dates. NSF strives to post revised deadlines on their website by Feb. 1. For more information , click here .
