Johns Hopkins University actively monitors developments affecting federal research funding and works closely with divisional and departmental leaders to provide support to Hopkins researchers.
This page lists resources and supports available to Johns Hopkins faculty engaged in research.
Questions? Please contact ORA ([email protected]) if you are in the School of Medicine or JHURA ([email protected]) for all other divisions, along with your departmental or divisional leadership.
The university has established formal processes for reviewing grant terminations and stop work orders and for communicating with PIs, subrecipients, and vendors.
Upon receipt of a termination notice or stop work order (SWO), PIs and departmental administrators should immediately contact JHURA ([email protected]) or ORA ([email protected]). Do not respond directly.
JHURA/ORA will provide the process for terminations or SWOs directly to affected PIs and departmental/divisional leaders following the receipt of a termination notice or stop work order.
Johns Hopkins is committed to investing in its faculty beyond federal research funding. We have a variety of internal funding programs, as well as research supports like grant writing services.
The Research Support Program provides pivot and bridge funding to faculty members following sponsored funding terminations or significant disruptions or delays across both federal and non-federal grant awards, when the termination or disruption is directly attributable to federal policy changes.
The Office of the Vice Provost for Research (OVPR) maintains lists of internal and external funding opportunities, including:
Additionally, the Office of Foundation Relations publishes funding opportunities, Johns Hopkins Tech Ventures offers numerous funding programs, and the Sheridan Libraries have many additional resources and tools for finding funding.
The Research Development Team and Editorial Assistance Services Initiative provide assistance with proposals, manuscripts and more. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact OVPR.
Some federal funding agencies have issued broad guidance regarding the interpretation of new policy directives. Please note that these agency memos and policies do not necessarily reflect subsequent review by courts or guidance from the university OGC. Researchers should consult department or divisional leadership and JHURA ([email protected]) or ORA ([email protected]) before making any changes to proposals or awards based on any of the resources below.
