Dear Clarkson Community:
Some of you may have heard directly from the National Science Foundation (NSF) that effective October 5, 2020 only NSF-approved formats may be used for the biographical sketch (biosketch) and the current & pending (C&P) documents uploaded for proposals. There are two formats currently approved to create biosketches and C&P documents: (1) SciENcv: Science Experts Network Curriculum Vitae and (2) an NSF Fillable PDF document.
You can find additional information about this new requirement below and on the SRS Proposal Preparation & Submission intranet site.
Check out the following YouTube Videos from SciENcv
· YouTube Video: SciENcv tutorial
· YouTube Video: Biographical Sketches for NSF
· YouTube Video: Current & Pending Support for NSF
· YouTube Video: Integrating with ORCiD
If your plans include submitting an application to NSF on or after October 5, what can you do to prepare?
· Alert Todd Travis (ttravis@clarkson.edu) and Trish Lowney (plowney@clarkson.edu) of your plans
· Check out NSF’s recently recorded webinar about this requirement and related information https://www.nsfpolicyoutreach.com/resources/april-2020-nsf-approved-formats-for-proposals/
· Consider registering for a unique ORCID identifier (https://orcid.org/); records associated with your ORCID ID can be linked to SciENcv and help populate the forms.
· For additional information, see the NSF pages for the biographical sketch (https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/biosketch.jsp) and current and pending support. (https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/cps.jsp)
We look forward to helping you!
