NIH Grant Close Out

Is your NIH grant about to end? Three reports are required to properly close out a grant – a Federal Financial Report (FFR), which is submitted by Sponsored Projects Accounting; and two items which require PI involvement -- a Final Invention Statement and Certification, which is required even if there were no inventions and they were reported previously; and a Final Progress Report. These items are all due within 90 days of the project period end date. Numerous resources are available on the NIH website (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/oer.htm) to assist with these processes. Contact your CGO if you need help with the resources provided.
