• September 11, 2025 - Implementation of NIH Research Security Policies. See Notice NOT-OD-25-154.

Issued by

NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (NIH)

Purpose

This announcement rescinds the NIH Research Security Policies previously announced in NOT-OD-25-154.

In an effort to harmonize with other Federal research agencies, NIH continues to work with the National Science Foundation and other Federal research agencies to finalize guidance on each of the required elements outlined in the Office of Science and Technology Policy Guidelines for Research Security Programs at Covered Institutions, and to develop a centralized process for recipients to certify compliance.

Therefore, an implementation date for the requirements announced in NOT-OD-25-154 have not been finalized, and as such the notice is rescinded. NIH will issue updated guidance on Research Security requirements in the coming months.
