Annual Report Documents

 

FSM Users: Beginning this year, application packets for FSM funding will be provided directly by the FSM Research Office. Please reach out to jeff-weiss@northwestern.edu to receive your application packet.

The FSM funding application and the NU Office for Research (OR) annual report share the Budget and Activity templates but use different Narratives. Cores that both apply for FSM funding and file an OR Annual Report (which is required to qualify for OR equipment funds) may submit the FSM funding application in lieu of the OR Narrative, but in this case they must also complete an OR Supplement. The FSM funding application should be sent to jeff-weiss@northwestern.edu.

The deadline for fiscal year 2027 funding requests is May 1, 2026.
