Greetings Harvard Research Administration Community,

The first Research Management Meeting will be next Wednesday, October 14, from 3 to 4 pm. Given the size of the invitation list, we will be running the meeting as a webinar. Below is the agenda for the meeting and the registration information.

DC Colleague Kara Haas, Director of Federal Relations, Harvard University, will provide a federal update, as well as on-campus University updates. The sponsored research community is expanding the reach of its Sponsored Administrative Leadership Committee (SALC). Currently, comprised of two reps from each school, co-chairs of the SALC sub-committees, and primary contacts within central offices (RMAS, OGC, OTD, OFSP, and OC). Limitation on membership was due to both space and time constraints. With our Zoom-centric work life, we are significantly broadening the list of attendees. The new Research Management Meetings, will be held bi-monthly and open to all within the research community. Questions? Contact Rachel Cahoon or Christina Kennedy.
