NSF Launches Common Form for Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has announced that NSTC-approved Common Forms for the Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending (Other) Support, which are compliant with the new NSF Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide (PAPPG) (NSF 24-1), are now available in SciENcv . These revised formats will be required for proposals submitted or due on or after May 20, 2024. While these revised formats cannot be uploaded in Research.gov or Grants.gov until May 20, 2024, NSF encourages proposers to become familiar with them in preparation for proposal submission in May.

NSF and our colleagues from the NIH/National Library of Medicine conducted a workshop on Thursday, April 25, to discuss the revisions to these forms as well as provide a demonstration of the revised functionality to create and download these required proposal documents in SciENcv. The webinar is available: NSF Implementation of the Common Forms for the Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending (Other) Support.
