The majority of UW鈥檚 sponsored funding comes from US federal agencies in the form of grants, cooperative agreements, fellowships, contracts, and intergovernmental personnel agreements (IPAs).
The (UG) is the regulatory foundation for federal grants and cooperative agreements.
Be aware of requirements and restrictions which may impact set up and management of federal awards.
Some examples include:
To apply for a grant or cooperative agreement, you respond to a funding opportunity that contains instructions on how to apply.
An Open Researcher and Contributor iD (ORCID) is a unique digital identifier that helps link researchers to their grants, publications, and other research-related work. ORCID iDs are maintained by the nonprofit ORCID. The 糖心原创 strongly encourages researchers to register for an ORCID iD. Review the UW’s ORCID iDs: An Overview for Researchers.
Federal agencies have a variety of systems used for external funding administration. Some are used strictly to submit proposals to the agencies and others are for pre-award and post-award management of the application and award.
In addition to following sponsor instructions and guidelines, the UW has internal deadlines and proposal submission requirements that must be followed.
Review more information and links for various Federal Agencies聽 after the Grants.gov section on this page to get started.

The and agency-specific supplements are the regulatory foundation for federal contracts. To apply for a federal contract, you apply to a solicitation that contains specific requirements and the anticipated terms and conditions for a resulting contract. It is especially important to start early when preparing a federal contract proposal.

Beginning January 20, 2020, all federal funding agencies, except the Department of Justice, require the use of a聽single IRB to review the human subjects activities for collaborative or multi-site studies. This has significant staffing and budget implications.
Federally funded emergency medicine research must meet some special compliance requirements. These have budgeting and staffing implications.
Federal non-discrimination laws must be considered when developing subject inclusion/exclusion criteria. Specifically, participants cannot be excluded from a study on the basis of age, gender, race, ethnicity, disability, or not speaking English (in a domestic study), unless there is a scientific rationale for doing so.
