Wonder what a “BAFO” is?
The Office of Sponsored Programs has a glossary of research terms in the Reference & Resources section of the website to help explain commonly used research terminology.
Submitting Information and Documents to Federal Agencies
Federal funding agencies, in particular the National Institutes of Health (NIH), have expressed annoyance with the University of Pittsburgh. Faculty and administrators have been responding directly to formal requests for information. These agencies have indicated to the Office of Sponsored Programs that they expect the submission of information and documents through the Institutional Official’s business unit. To address this concern by the agencies, please send your documents and information to your grants officer in the Office of Sponsored Programs to submit on your behalf to these federal agencies.
