The NIH has postponed requiring the use of SciENcv Common forms to complete all Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending (Other) Support documents. A new date has not yet been announced. Continue using the current NIH Biosketch and Other Support format pages for applications, Just-in-Time (JIT) and RPPRs.
You can still take steps now to prepare for the transition:
- Obtain an ORCID ID. Please see the Becker Library resources guide for instructions on how to set up your account.
- Create a SciENcv account, linking it to your ORCID ID.
- Assign delegates in SciENcv. Delegates can enter Common Form information but cannot certify documents. Individuals must have a SciENcv account before they can be added as a delegate.
We will continue to monitor NIH announcements and provide updates as soon as the Common Forms become available in SciENcv.
