The use of SciENcv and Common Disclosure Forms for Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending (Other) Support are now required for NIH funding applications with due dates and Research Performance Progress Reports (RPPR) submissions on or after January 25, 2026. Additional federal agencies such as DOE and NSF also require the use of SciENcv and Common Disclosure Forms for submissions. 

This Brown Bag session will offer an opportunity for researchers, research administrators, and other members of the GW community involved in sponsored research to discuss the use of SciENcv to create and submit their Common Disclosure Forms. Attendees can ask questions, share tips, and connect with colleagues through their shared experiences with SciENcv and Common Disclosure Forms. Subject matter experts from the GW Himmelfarb and Gelman Libraries, as well as the Office of Sponsored Projects will also be on hand to share their expertise.
