Impacts To Proposal Process

MFTRP Common Form RS Training ORCID iD Non-MSU Covered Individuals (CIs)

MSU faculty/staff:
Must have an updated annual disclosure that includes a response to the MFTRP question prior to proposal submission. This response feeds into the Kuali Research system.

Common Forms must be signed prior to proposal submission. It is the unit's responsibility to retain the version with the electronic signature, where applicable. We recommend uploading to Kuali Research.

MSU faculty/staff:
Training certificates must be provided to OSP prior to proposal submission. Working toward having training completion dates feed into Kuali Research.

Senior/Key persons will have to create their ORCID iD and link it within SciENcv and some sponsor systems (e.g. NIH's eRA Commons). KR has an ORCID iD field, but it does not populate federal forms or systems.

Subrecipients:
Updating our subrecipient commitment form to add certifications for MFTRP and Research Security training.

Other Non-MSU CIs:
Asking the Big Ten to see how others are verifying compliance for these individuals. MSU is thinking of creating a separate certification form.
