Research Restarting Plans
|
|
Each principal investigator will be expected to submit a plan for resuming research in accordance with the guidelines outlined in the document
“
Restarting Research Activities at Georgetown: a phased approach
,”
shared with the research community on June 11. This plan should be submitted using the GMS portal available soon. See
this link
to view draft questions to help prepare a plan. When the online form in GMS is completed, it will be submitted to your department chair. Final approval of plans will be made by the dean, in consultation with the chair and others. Please note — approval of a research resumption plan does not constitute permission to restart or increase research activities until formal DC government approval to do so has been granted.
