Designed to accelerate breakthrough technologies and strengthen U.S. competitiveness, this initiative underscores NSF's interest in new models of research that reflect the truly interdisciplinary nature of today's modern science ecosystem.
NSF X-Labs are independent teams of researchers, engineers, and entrepreneurs pursuing milestone-based federal funding to solve specific scientific challenges. Click here for full announcement<https://uidp.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT00Njg2NDgwJnA9MSZ1PTQ3NDAyOTI3MiZsaT...>.
UIDP will host a members-only virtual Town Hall on this development on Thursday, May 21, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. ET. The session will be moderated by UIDP Senior Strategic Advisor Chris Ramming.

FYI - New NSF and NIH formats for DMSP
by Elizabeth Tilley
Hi All,
I stumbled across the new format for NSF DMSP and @Shannon Janssen<mailto:Shannon.Janssen@utsa.edu> informed me that NIH will have a new format as well. If this was announced previously, my apologies! I just encountered the NSF tool and wanted to share for people to be aware.
For NSF this was part of the policy notice, NSF 26-202, that went out in January, which might have been put on this listserv previously, but I didn't remember it. The new DMSP tool is in research.gov as of April 27th, 2026.
https://www.nsf.gov/policies/document/pappg24-1-supplement-2
For NIH, the new form is required as of May 25th, 2026. I am attaching the new template and information link is below.

Thank you,
Liz

No Access to Cayuse on May 12th after 6:00 p.m. for 5-15 minutes
by Jennifer Silver
Everyone, CAYUSE will be down on 05/12/2026, Tuesday, after 6:00 p.m. for work on the grants.gov certificate. The restart will require approximately 5-15 minutes of downtime for the Cayuse Proposals production instance, and no users will be able to access the system during the downtime.
@OSP<mailto:osp@utsa.edu> After the restart is completed, Cayuse Support will perform a test with a 'dummy' proposal record and submit the proposal to Grants.gov to confirm the new certificate is in place and working as expected. The test proposal submission will fail, and you may receive a notice from Grants.gov of a failed submission sent to the ogcia(a)utsa.edu<mailto:ogcia@utsa.edu> email address, but this can be ignored.
Let me know if you have any questions about this no-access period for Cayuse planned for next week.
Thank you!
Jennifer
