<p class="MsoNormal">Pursuant to the Chips & Science Act of 2022 ("CHIPS Act") (Section 10631), federal research agencies are in the process of implementing new policies prohibiting the participation in a Malign Foreign Talent Recruitment Program (MFTRP) by
Covered Individuals involved with research and development awards from federal research agencies.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To ensure compliance with these new policies, UC has updated its C&G Manual to include definitions of Foreign Talent Programs and "Malign" Foreign Talent Recruitment Programs (MFTRPs) (<a href="https://www.ucop.edu/research-policy-analysis-coordination/resources-tools/contract-and-grant-manual/chapter2/chapter-2-500.html#ch2-553">Section
2-553</a>), and have provided the following resources for review. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Researchers are advised that, in addition to pre-existing required reporting of participation in Foreign Talent Recruiting Programs on biosketches and current and pending/other support forms, researchers applying for or working on a federal
award must now disclose if they are a participant of a Malign Foreign Talent Recruitment Program (MFTRP) prior to submission of a federal proposal and within 30 days of becoming a member of a foreign talent recruitment program, malign or otherwise, and annually
thereafter. <o:p></o:p></p>
