Dear Colleagues:
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) recently issued the following announcements and notices last week. If you have any questions, please contact your Federal Contracts and Grants Officer (https://research.uci.edu/about-or/contact/staff-by-dept-assignment/) or me at warnerj@uci.edu.
NIH has released an enhancement to the eRA Commons so that users will only need a single set of eRA credentials. This enhancement will allow users with multiple accounts to consolidate into a single account that can then be mapped to Login.gov. If you are an eRA Commons user with multiple accounts, NIH encourages you to consolidate your accounts as soon as possible. The link above provides instructions on the process for consolidating accounts.
