Funding & Proposal Support Accelerating Research Innovation via AWS Sandbox Accelerating Research Innovation via AWS Sandbox Accelerating Research Innovation via AWS Sandbox Alicia Gahimer, ord@iu. edu Open through September 1, 2026 IU currently holds expiring, unallocated Amazon Web Services (AWS) credits.
To utilize this resource, Research Data Services (RDS) has developed the Research Innovation Sandbox, a controlled, low-risk computing environment where faculty can experiment with cloud-native research tools (e.g., GenAI, High-Performance Computing, Big Data analytics) without administrative or financial friction.
The AWS Innovation Sandbox The AWS Innovation Sandbox is a purpose-built AWS solution that automates the deployment of isolated, "disposable" cloud accounts. It removes the two biggest barriers to cloud adoption in research: Fear of Cost Overruns and Security Risks . This initiative utilizes IU’s existing, unused AWS cloud credits.
There is no additional budget request for the credits themselves. The AWS Innovation Sandbox solution is open-source and leverages our existing AWS Landing Zone, resulting in negligible operational costs. All full-time faculty may apply for cloud credits on the AWS Innovation Sandbox.
Application Process and Implementation Application: Researchers submit a brief request focusing on grant-funded research goals. Review: The Office for Research Development (ORD) reviews and routes request to UITS with their recommendation. Allocation: Approved projects receive a sandbox lease with a credit cap and a time limit of up to $1,000 and 90 days respectively.
(Larger credit caps can be considered for exceptional projects.) Governance: The environment is isolated from the university’s existing cloud accounts. Transition: Before completion, researchers could request a cost-and-architecture report to include in their next grant budget for a full production environment.
Applications will be taken on a rolling basis until September 1, 2026 or until the cloud credits have been used. Apply online here: https://iurds-fireform. eas.

A new Interior Department policy routes every grant and cooperative agreement of $50,000 or more through two political appointees for manual review. The result is a backlog of roughly 1,400 grants and $362 million in delayed funding — up from fewer than 10 two years ago. Here is how the bottleneck works, why it matters even for recipients who already have an award letter, and what nonprofits, universities, states, and tribes should do to protect projects that depend on Interior dollars.
Read articleThe RFI closed June 22. Now the forum is standing up. AI Forge is a jointly governed, university-led venture funding interpretability, control, and adversarial robustness in one-year Project Ventures — here's how the 15 challenges, the CAISI tie, and the nonprofit administrator reshape who gets funded.
Read articleOMB's proposed rewrite of 2 CFR Part 200 would convert the Uniform Guidance from guidance into binding, force-of-law regulation — adding discretionary termination authority, mandatory political-appointee review before award, DEI and foreign-collaboration prohibitions, and the elimination of fixed-amount awards. The comment period closed with 496,769 submissions, roughly 95% opposed. The targeted effective date is October 1, 2026. This is a full breakdown of what changes, who is exposed, and the concrete moves nonprofits and universities should make in the next 75 days.
