<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal>NIH has updated more than 500 Funding Opportunity Announcements
as part of its transition from PureEdge to Adobe Forms application
packages. Important information about this transition has been posted to
the “<b>News</b>” section of the <a
href="http://or.ucr.edu/index.aspx">Office of Research web site</a>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I encourage everyone who involved in the submission of NIH
grant applications to review this information, as use of the wrong application
package will result in Grants.gov and/or NIH eRA Commons error messages that
will prevent submission of the application.<o:p></o:p></p>
