<p class=MsoNormal>A clarification of the campus implementation of the UC PI
eligibility policy has been posted to the Office of Research website at <a
href="http://or.ucr.edu/policies/policies.aspx?k=6">http://or.ucr.edu/policies/policies.aspx?k=6</a>.
This clarification replaces prior memorandums describing the implementation of
this policy.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>In addition, a revised form for requesting policy exceptions
has been posted to the Office of Research Website at <a
href="http://or.ucr.edu/home/Forms.aspx">http://or.ucr.edu/home/Forms.aspx</a>.
This form was revised to align it with the PI role in eCAF, as well as to
streamline the policy exception request process. Effective July 1, 2008,
the Office of Research will only accept policy exception requests that utilize
the new form, which can be identified by its title: “Request for
Exception to Policy Regarding PI Eligibility”.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Questions regarding the new form or the policy
implementation clarification should be directed to either me or the <a
href="http://or.ucr.edu/home/Staff.aspx?t=3">Contract and Grant Officer
assigned to your unit</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
