Once they have fully implemented project reporting through Research.gov, Principal Investigators (PIs) and co-PIs will use Research.gov to meet all NSF project reporting requirements, including submission of Annual, Final and Interim Project Reports and the
Project Outcomes Report. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
