The following policy is pending formal University ap-proval. All undergraduate and graduate students paid by internal or external research grants will complete an RCR “core curriculum” comprised of two parts: 1. CITI module-based online RCR training and certification.* 2. Attend at least one Graduate School RCR workshop per se-

mester, during which they are employed by the grant. Please note that individual department courses can be certified to replace the above CITI certification. Requests for course RCR certification should be directed to Christa Johnson, Associate Dean for Research in the Graduate School. SIUE recognizes that ethics are fundamental to all aca-demic research. Ethics foster the trust necessary for institutions of higher education to function. Researchers’ behavior must inspire public trust that the information created through university re-search is reliable and that public funding of research is valuable. For this reason the Graduate School encourages all students to opt into the research ethics program. The Graduate School has also compiled a Guide to Resources on Research Ethics available on our website at http://www.siue.edu/research/humansubjectsprotection/rcr_home.shtml .

—By Christa Johnson ¹ This policy was published in the Federal Register Vol. 74, No. 160, Thursday, August 20, 2009. Further notification may be found in Chapter II of the NSF Grant Proposal Guide.

(Continued from page 1)

RCR Requirement Cont.

I n order to offer sufficient variety and number of workshops on topics related to research ethics in the RCR Core Curriculum, the Graduate School will be calling for faculty volunteers. The Graduate School will offer $200 to faculty who are willing to develop and teach one 2-hour workshop “module” on one or more Responsible Conduct in Research themes. The workshop modules should incor-porate at least one case study analysis. The Graduate School aims to cover all nine areas of research ethics, as defined by the Office of Research Integrity (http://ori.dhhs.gov/) over the course of a three year period:

Data Acquisition, Management, Sharing and Ownership Conflict of Interest and Commitment Human Subjects Protection Animal Welfare Research Misconduct Publication Practices and

Responsible Authorship Mentor / Trainee Responsibilities Peer Review Collaborative Science

Agency Updates:

Upcoming New Requirement: Data Management Plans National Science Foundation officials recently announced a change in their policy on sharing research data.

The new policy would include a requirement that all proposals contain a data management plan in the form of a two-page supple-ment. The requirement is expected to be implemented on, or around, October, 2010, and will be preceded by further details from the NSF in coming publications. The data management plan is a change in the implementation of NSF’s long-standing policy that grantees must agree to “share their data within a reasonable length of time, so long as the cost is modest.” According to NSF officials, the requirement is meant to ad-dress a growing need in today’s data-driven scientific enterprise, and it is an attempt to ensure proper data management within the grow-ing number of collaborative and interdisciplinary projects. The National Institutes of Health’s long-standing policy is likely to act as the model for the NSF’s new policy. NIH’s policy requires that P.I.’s address the management of data between investigators in their proposals and that P.I.’s share their “final research data” with the NIH’s central repository. NIH defines “final research data” as “recorded factual material commonly accepted in the scien-tific community as necessary to validate research findings. Final research data do not include laboratory notebooks, partial datasets, pre-liminary analyses, drafts of scientific papers, plans for future research, peer review reports, communications with colleagues, or physical objects, such as gels or laboratory specimens.” More information about the NIH policy may be found at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/data_sharing/data_sharing_faqs.htm. NSF has acknowledged that each discipline may have its own data management culture and that there is no one-size-fits-all ap-proach to proper data management. These considerations will inform the agency’s further guidelines about the new requirement, forth-coming in the months before October.

nsf.gov/open---NSF’s Open Government Plan In its efforts to comply with the Obama administration’s Open Government Directive, the NSF has developed a plan to keep the public informed about NSF-funded research, make research results more readily available, improve transparency, and make public par-ticipation and collaboration part of the agency’s core mission. A new website dedicated to this purpose, nsf.gov/open, was launched on February 6th. The website includes links to NSF’s Open Government Directive Plan, significant data sources related to government trans-parency, reports on the Agency’s recent awards, and updates on current activities. The website is designed in a way to make the informa-tion accessible to the general public. The Agency is also inviting comments and feedback on the Open Government Plan through blogs and social media portals.

Summer Stipend Internal Competition Applications Due to Graduate School August 16, 2010 For information about the application process, contact Patience Graybill at [email protected].

NIH: Electronic Tools

NEH

NIH Pub Med: Publication Submission Portal for NIH-funded Projects NIH’s Public Access Policy is the agency’s attempt to encourage transparency in NIH-funded research. The policy seeks to ensure that the public has access to all published results of NIH funded research, and it requires scientists to submit final peer-reviewed journal manuscripts that arise from NIH funds to the digital archive PubMed Central upon acceptance for publication. To help ad-vance science and improve human health, the Policy requires that these papers are accessible to the public on PubMed Central no later than 12 months after publication. For more information about NIH’s Public Access Policy and the role of Pub Med, visit: http://publicaccess.nih.gov/policy.htm NIH e-SNAP: Electronic Streamlined Non-competing Award Process The e-SNAP portal offers PI’s with Research series awards the opportunity to submit streamlined annual progress reports. SIUE principle investigators may register their grants for e-SNAP by completing appropriate steps in e-Commons. A tab labeled e-Snap in e-Commons guides users through the process. Features of e-SNAP include: electronic submission of progress reports; elec-tronic routing of e-SNAP information to authorizing officials at the applicant institution for review; the ability to save and route e-SNAP in a work-in-progress state; the ability to retain key personnel report data from previous submissions for easy updates; citations are linked to information stored in the PI’s Person Profile; and the automatic generation and storage of PDF files. The system also in-corporates streamlined business processes that eliminate routine annual reporting of IRB & IACUC review information, but approval data must still be made available upon request.

Illinois Procurement Code Senate Bill 51 – How this will affect grants beginning July 1, 2010

Senate Bill 51 was signed into law as Public Act 96-795. How will this change in the Illinois Procurement Code affect external funding at the proposal stage and at the award stage? Grant proposal budgets are formulated based upon the needs of the project and the principal investigator. If a project calls for contractual services, we advise principal investigators/project directors to name the source(s) to be used. Oftentimes the pro-ject calls for very specific needs and skills that can only be supplied by certain people or entities. As Nancy Ufert has outlined for us in an announcement dated June 24, 2010: Public hearings must be held for all “sole source” purchases (and for extensions of emergency contracts beyond an ini-tial 90 day period). Sole Source is “permitted when there is only one economical source for the good or service.” http://www.siue.edu/purchasing/procurement.shtml - SoleSource

Payment cannot be made to suppliers for goods or services received before a state-funded contract is reduced to writing unless a waiver is obtained from the State Comptroller.

Copies of subcontracts greater than $25,000 must be filed with the Chief Procurement Officer for Higher Education, and contractor and subcontractor disclosures of financial interests and conflicts of interest much now be filed with the state Procurement Policy Board.

Any communications between university employees involved in the contracting process and potential suppliers must be re-ported to the Procurement Policy Board (PPB) and such reports will be posted publicly to the PPB website.

Nancy Ufert’s email predicts, “the indirect effect on university departments will be a more lengthy formal contracting process and the possibility that the Purchasing Department may request additional information regarding specific purchases.” Be aware that these changes will increase the time required to process con-tractual services related to awarded grant projects. New requirements and processes may develop to aid in meeting the new requirements.

SIUE Graduate School Announces the 2010 Paul Simon Outstanding Teacher-Scholar

SIUE Graduate School Announces the 2010 Hoppe Research Professor

Dr. Urszula Ledzewicz Distinguished Research Professor of Mathematics and Statistics 2010 Paul Simon Outstanding Teacher-Scholar Dr. Urszula Ledzewicz is a well-known expert in the field of optimal control and optimization with applications to biomedicine. She is an author of over 120 refereed publications and two edited vol-umes in this field. Her recent, most recognized contributions concern applications of optimal control to mathematical models for various cancer treatments. Twelve of her publications on this topic have been co-authored with SIUE graduate students. She has given over 130 presentations of her research at interna-tional conferences and invited talks at universities all over the world. Many of these presentations were based on joint work with her graduate students and co-authored by them. Her research has been awarded 13 external grants from funding agencies like NSF or NATO. Graduate students working with Dr. Ledze-wicz actively participate in the research under these grants including international collaborative visits in Poland and Italy. Dr. Ledzewicz takes an active part in the professional community by serving as Associ-ate Editor for seven international journals in her field and co-organizing various congresses and confer-ences in the States and abroad. She was recently the main US organizer of an international workshop in Israel which not only brought together researchers from mathematics, biology and medicine, but also through two external grants en-abled the participations of a large number of US graduate students including one from SIUE. At SIUE she is a past recipient of two Research Scholar Awards, the Hoppe Research Professor Award, Distinguished Research Professor Award and, most recently, the Wil-liam and Margaret Going Endowed Professorship Award in the College of Arts and Sciences.

Dr. Andrzej (Andy) Lozowski Associate Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering 2010 Hoppe Research Professor The Hoppe Research Professor Awards are made to SIUE faculty mem-bers in order to recognize and support individual programs of research or creative activities. These Awards recognize faculty members whose research or creative activities have the promise of making significant contributions to their fields of study. The Hoppe Research Professorship Awards are designed to support a sig-nificant and discrete portion of a faculty member's larger research agenda. The Hoppe Research Professor will be appointed for a two-year period. Dr. Lozowski’s research project is titled “How to Plug-In Distributed Energy Resources.” Lozowski’s research interests include the conversion of energy between new electrical power technologies and existing power grid structures. The Hoppe project proposes to further explore the relationship between power generated by individual “power islands,” such as privately-owned windmills or solar pan-els, and the existing grid. Due to infrastructure design and reluctance on the side of the power industry, the current ability of the power grid to accept power from individual power islands is highly limited and often suppressed. Lozowski’s work proposes to develop a “theoretical foundation for the dynamics of the electric grid with island-capable nodes,” thus offering to provide new systems technology to enable the conversion of power from individual power islands into the grid. It is Lozowski’s hope that this theoretical model and inver-sion technology will enable the gradual transformation of the grid infrastructure and its incorporation of alternative energy sources. Pro-jected applications include a cooperation with a local green energy firm to provide power inverters with islanding capability to residents in Haiti—potentially the first autonomously distributed grid ever.

SIUE Graduate School Announces the 2010 Vaughnie Lindsay New Investigator Award Winners

Dr. Edward Navarre Assistant Professor, Department of Chemistry, College of Arts & Sciences

Dr. Edward Navarre of the SIUE Department of Chemistry has been awarded the 2010 Vaugh-nie Lindsay New Investigator Award for his promising research in the areas of analytical chemistry and applied spectrometry. Since receiving his Ph.D. in 2002, Dr. Navarre has developed his high-level work in the areas of analytical chemistry and atomic spectrometry, publishing in top journals of the field as well as presenting at conferences nationally and internationally. For his Vaughnie Lindsay project Dr. Navarre tackles the question of how to make high-end instrumentation like electrothermal atomic spec-trometry economically and logistically accessible to diverse laboratories and researchers. In disciplines like art conservation, forensics, and public health, investigators often find themselves in need of a practical way to conduct analysis in the field. Dr. Navarre proposes to develop a portable, auto-mated instrument for elemental analysis. Working with collaborators in SIUE’s Electrical Engineering Department, Dr. Navarre’s lab will develop a power source and experiment with analytical methods for detecting trace elements in paints and physiological fluids. The end result will be an energy-efficient, inexpensive, and portable in-strument that will allow researchers to extract and analyze samples in the field or in the laboratory. The project not only offers exciting training opportunities for Dr. Navarre’s students to work on a patentable product, it promises a solution to multidisciplinary problems that can be applied across academic, business, and government research labs alike.

Dr. Jason Stacy Assistant Professor, Department of Historical Studies, College of Arts & Sciences Dr. Jason Stacy has been with SIUE in the Department of Historical Studies since 2006. As a pro-fessor of U.S. History, Dr. Stacy has worked to establish expertise in antebellum American cultural and intellectual history. Along with numerous peer-reviewed articles and presentations, Stacy’s book Walt Whitman’s Multitudes: Labor Reform and Persona in Whitman’s Journalism and the First Leaves of Grass 1840 – 1855 (2008) and edited volume Leaves of Grass 1860: The 150th Anniversary Facsimile Edition have garnered his reputation as an up-and-coming star of Whitman studies.

Dr. Stacy’s Vaughnie Lindsay project focuses on his next book, “The Future’s Past: Experimental Histories in the Early American Republic.” The project will explore popular histories' role in shaping Americans’ conceptions of their past. Dr. Stacy will trace the sometimes ambivalent and tense relationship between popular and professional history to the 1830s and 1840s, when Americans first began to wrestle with contested memories of their origins. At a time when mass-produced and easily-read histories began to compete with older, more aristocratic models, Dr. Stacy argues, key authors incorporated the tropes of mass-market histories while also critiquing and attempting to supplant them. The book explores how contemporary authors negotiated popular and traditional historical writing to create a particularly American history of the nation's origins.

Keep watch for limited competitions, SIUE internal deadlines Some open grant competitions, particularly the most popular, large instrumentation, or program de-velopment grants at major granting agencies (like the NSF’s MRI and STEP programs) limit the number of submissions allowed for each institution. The NEH Summer Stipend Program, for example, allows only 2 nominations per institution. The National Institutes of Health also limit submissions to its instrumentation pro-grams. In order to administer the institutional submissions to such grants properly, SIUE often sets internal deadlines for applications intended for limited competitions. Occasionally, if more applications than allowed for each competition are submitted to the Office of Research & Projects, an internal competition is conducted in order to select top nominees for the external award. Please check guidelines carefully for any instructions regarding limited submissions. If you plan to submit an external grant proposal to a limited competition, please contact the Office of Research and Projects at least six weeks before the planned submission. This will allow us to help you properly prepare your pro-posal and to coordinate multiple applications for a limited program. See also the SIUE Research website for more information regarding limited competitions: http://www.siue.edu/research/externalgrants/submission.shtml.

Activities from the Institute for Urban Research by Andy Theising, Director

The IUR was pleased to co-sponsor the St. Louis Regional Neighborhoods Conference on May 1st. The event was held at Harris-Stowe State University and the keynote speaker was Leonard Pitts, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist from the Miami Herald. The conference highlighted St. Louis Currents, the recent publication from the IUR. Currents authors Mark Tranel (University of Missouri-St. Louis) and Sarah Coffin (St. Louis University) led a breakout ses-sion on Neighborhood Environmental Concerns, and Bob Hansman (Washington University in St. Louis) and James Ingram (columnist for the St. Louis American) led a session on Race and Community, which I facilitated. The IUR’s Hugh Pavitt was on the organizing committee and deserves to be recognized, along with Graduate Assistants Christen Gates and Delia Major. Eugene Redmond partnered with the IUR to lead four different tours of East St. Louis in conjunction with the Graduate School Symposium and also the CAS Colloquium. The tours were a big hit, and so much interest was generated by people who could not attend that the IUR will schedule an additional tour or two for later in the summer. Watch your e-mail for more information as it becomes available. The IUR is planning three new publications in 2010, focusing on East St. Louis’s sesquicentennial in 2011. The first is a book of critical essays on the city, edited by Mark Abbott (Harris-Stowe State University). The second is an electronic searchable encyclo-pedia of the city’s history, edited by Charlie Lumpkins (Penn State). The third is a digital sampling from SIUE’s archival holdings related to the city’s history, edited by Archivist Steve Kerber.

SIUE RESEARCH CENTERS………………………...

The S.T.E.M. Center has been looking forward to the arrival of its new director, Sharon Locke, on July 1st. Dr. Locke comes to SIUE from the University of Southern Maine, where she held a position as a faculty researcher in the Departments of Geosciences and Information Sciences. Her scientific accomplishments include publications in the areas of water ecology modeling, sediment stratigraphy, paleoceanographic records, and STEM education. Her research has been funded by the Maine Space Grant Consortium, the National Sci-ence Foundation, the Kosciuszko Foundation, and NASA. A recent fellowship from the University of the Witwatersrand has also enabled Dr. Locke to conduct a year-long research project in South Africa. Dr. Locke brings with her not only broad experience as a scientist and science educator, but also an impressive background in research administration. She has served as a program director for the National Science Foundation’s Resources, Models, and Tools Clus-ter, Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings. There she received prestigious awards from the NSF, including one for program management excellence. Her service activities at the University of Southern Maine also led her to help establish and lead the University’s Undergraduate Research Programs as well as some of its internal grant programs for faculty. Dr. Locke’s experience in developing and leading research programs have led her to be invited to speak on topics related to K-12 science education and under-graduate education programs all over the country, and her dossier shows a long-term commitment to teacher development. With this profile behind her, Dr. Locke promises to provide strong, experienced leadership in the areas of STEM research and education, and we welcome her as a new member of SIUE’s dedicated faculty!
