NIH MIDWEST REGIONAL SEMINAR IN PROGRAM FUNDING AND GRANTSADMINISTRATION NIH GUIDE, Volume 23, Number 21, June 3, 1994 P.T. 42 Keywords: Grants Administration/Policy+ National Institutes of Health A regional seminar covering topics related to program funding and grants administration at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has been scheduled for July 21-22, 1994. The seminar, hosted by Northwestern University and held on its Evanston campus, is intended to attract faculty and research administrators from the midwest region of the United States, although those interested from other regions are also invited and welcome. Staff from small and minority colleges, for-profit research organizations, hospitals, universities, and medical centers are encouraged to attend. This two-day seminar will have a dual focus of interest to both academic researchers, as well as new and senior research administrators. Discussions of current issues that affect NIH funding and grants administration will be featured to give conference participants a comprehensive view of NIH-sponsored research. There will be time available to network with fellow researchers and meet informally with NIH representatives to discuss topics of special interest. Mr. Geoffrey Grant, Acting Director, NIH Office of Policy for Extramural Research Administration, and outstanding representatives from the Grants Policy Office, Division of Research Grants, and several awarding components of the NIH will be featured speakers.
