NCURA Special Satellite Broadcast

“The True Costs of Compliance and Why We Must Invest” is the title of an upcoming satellite broadcast presented by the National Council of University Research Administrators and sponsored by UK’s Office of Sponsored Projects Administration. The broadcast will be held on

May 14, 2002, at the Student Center Theater from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Join John Fini, financial director, Research Management at Massachusetts General Hospital, and Michael Amey, assistant dean for Research Administration, School of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University for a wide-ranging discussion of the obvious—and not-so-obvious—costs for compliance and non-compliance.  The panel, which will include federal agency representatives, will give research administrators and senior officials a realistic view of the true costs of research compliance, and provide some real-world advice and suggestions for meeting requirements during a time of budgetary constraints and competing needs within the overall research enterprise.
