The U.S. Government Policy for Stopping High-Risk Life Sciences Research, released July 28, 2026 under EO 14292 and implemented at NIH through NOT-OD-26-101, replaces mitigation with prohibition. It bans dangerous gain-of-function research outright, gates potential DGOF behind government-wide review, and creates International Research of Concern — a research-security regime wearing biosafety clothing. Penalties run to five-year debarment and False Claims Act exposure.
Read articleNSF published solicitation 26-508 establishing TechAccess: AI-Ready America, a three-round program to fund up to 56 statewide AI coordination hubs — one per state, the District of Columbia, and each U.S. territory — at $1M per year for three years with a possible fourth-year extension. Round one funds 10 hubs with letters of intent due June 16, 2026 and full proposals due July 16. Round two opens December 15 for an additional 20 hubs; round three covers the remainder in 2027. The program is NSF's largest single bet on AI literacy and statewide AI capacity outside of the existing AI Research Institutes. Here is the eligibility math, the convening-authority gate, the partnership architecture that wins, and the strategic question every state higher-ed system needs to answer in the next two weeks.
