Effective January 25, 2026, the NIH required the use of the new Common Form format for Biographical Sketches and Current and Pending (Other) Support documentation.

Panelists: Jenny Pierce, Head of Research, Education and Outreach Services, Health Sciences Libraries and Head of Science, Technology, Engineering and Biomedicine Research and Instructional Services, Charles Library; Alicia Pucci, Assistant Director for Scholarly Communications, Temple University Libraries and University Press.
