I am an NRSA recipient (either institutional training grant or individual fellowship). As a result of a natural disaster, can I temporarily reduce my time and effort to the training program?
Trainees on institutional training grants should contact their training grant director who may approve the proposed reduction in effort, and who will submit the necessary documents to the NIH awarding Institute or Center. Fellows on individual fellowships should directly submit the request to reduce effort to the Grants Management Officer that signed the initial grant award. NRSA trainees and fellows should be aware that there will be a proportionate reduction in stipend support. For postdoctoral NRSA recipients this may impact the amount of payback obligation that may be incurred.
