Updates to Federal Uniform Grants Regulation: Feedback Form
VCU's Office of Management and Budget recently announced updates to the federal Uniform Grants Regulation. Because these changes could significantly impact how federal awards are managed and administered across higher education, and to navigate this transition effectively, the university's OVPRI (Office of the Vice President for Research and Innovation) wants to hear from our research community. Please consider completing our feedback form at the following URL by Tuesday, June 23 to share your insights, questions and perspectives.

Risk-Taking in Eating Disorders Study
The Translational Research on Eating and Affect (TREAT) Lab is recruiting adolescent girls and young adult women (aged 12 to 25 years) for a brain imaging study to understand risky decision-making in individuals who have concerns about their body shape/weight, or overeat, purge, use laxatives, diet severely or exercise excessively. We are also investigating these processes in individuals without a psychological disorder. There will be compensation for participation.
For more information, contact TREAT Lab (or Kelsey Hagan, Ph.D., PI) at treatlab@vcuhealth.org or (804) 827-4174 or visit https://redcap.vcu.edu/surveys/?s=48YEAYT8MK33E8EJ.
