The Joint Associations Group (JAG) on Indirect Costs wants to hear from you and the stakeholder community regarding our effort to develop a more efficient and transparent model for funding indirect costs on federal research grants. The JAG consists of national organizations (see below) representing America’s academic, medical, and independent research institutions, along with other relevant experts.

On May 8 and 12, on behalf of the Joint Associations Group (JAG) on Indirect Costs, COGR will host two town hall webinars. The webinars will include: an overview on facilities & administrative (or indirect) costs; information about the scope, structure and work of JAG and its subject matter expert group; and substantial time for audience input and Q&A. Leaders from the JAG organizations and Dr. Kelvin Droegemeier, Professor and Special Advisor to the Chancellor for Science and Policy, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; and former WH OSTP Director will lead the webinars.

Both webinars will be recorded and made available by the national organizations listed at the end of this communication.

This registration link is for the May 8 Town Hall. If you would like to register for the May 12 Town Hall, click here.

Questions and suggestions may be submitted during the webinar via the Q&A function in Zoom. You may also submit questions here in advance of the town halls.
Additionally, JAG has developed several questions to stimulate your thinking, and we encourage you to submit responses and offer additional comments and suggestions.
For questions about registration or other logistics, contact memberservices@cogr.edu.

In advance of these town halls, we encourage you to review the following materials:

Please note: This is an open session intended for institution leaders, administrators, government relations representatives, and those who work directly on F&A issues and federal grants management. All questions will be handled anonymously, and registrant information will not be shared outside of the participating national organizations. Capacity is limited.
