National Security Presidential Memorandum 33 (NSPM-33)

NSPM-33 established national security policy for U.S. Government-supported R&D. The purpose of NSPM-33 is to strengthen protections of U.S. Government-supported R&D against foreign government interference and misappropriation, while maintaining an open environment to foster research discoveries and innovation that benefit the United States and the world.

The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy issued the NSPM-33 Implementation Guidance Pre- and Post-award Disclosures Relating to the Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support table in September 2022.

NSPM-33 Implementation Guidance Pre- and Post-award Disclosures Relating to the Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending (Other) Support Table has been created to provide helpful reference information regarding pre-award and post-award disclosures. The table includes the types of activities to be reported, where such activities must be reported in the application, as well as when updates are required in the application and award lifecycle. A final column identifies activities that are not required to be reported.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) have robust disclosure webpages with current agency policy and expectations. Additionally, the Council on Governmental Relations (COGR) developed a comprehensive matrix of research security laws, policy and regulations that includes disclosure requirements for each federal funding agency.
