UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — The Penn State community is invited to attend a conversation hosted by Penn State Senior Vice President for Research Andrew Read at 1:45 p.m. 5月28日，在大学公园校园并在线直播。 The conversation will provide an opportunity for faculty, staff and students to engage in dialogue with Read about the status of recent executive actions and federal agency communications that affect Penn State’s research enterprise, and how the University is monitoring and responding to those actions.  联邦关系助理副总裁阿曼达·温特斯汀（Amanda Wintersteen）将加入Read进行讨论。

The conversation follows a previous event that was hosted by Read on Feb. 28, which focused specifically on the National Institutes of Health’s (NIH’s) proposed 15% cap on indirect cost reimbursements for federally funded research.从那时起，美国国家科学基金会（NSF）和能源部（DOE）提出了类似的上限。

“As one of America’s leading research universities, Penn State depends on funding from the federal government to conduct research that benefits the nation and world,” Read said. “The precariousness of this funding is deeply concerning, and I know many members of the Penn State community share this concern. I hope the event on May 28 provides an opportunity for us to come together in solidarity of our shared values of conducting high-quality research and educating our students.”

Read noted that while he may not have answers to all the community’s questions, he looks forward to sharing more about the University’s efforts. For example, Penn State recently submitted a declaration in support of a lawsuit filed by the Association of American Universities, the American Council on Education, and the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities, along with 13 research universities, to seek to halt the NSF's proposed 15% indirect cost rate.
