A summary of all the flexibilities available for impacted applicants and recipients are provided in NOT-OD-23-171 Reminder: NIH Natural Disaster Policies. The NIH website on Extramural Response to Natural Disasters also provides a list of available resources, including guidance on animal welfare and human safety issues.
