  <dc:description>Why OIG Did This Review. In fiscal year (FY) 2020, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded $31 billion to grantee institutions (hereafter grantees) to support biomedical research. These grantees play key roles in protecting the integrity and security of U.S. biomedical research by requiring investigators to report (1) significant financial interests (hereafter financial interests) and (2) all sources of their other support (hereafter support), which includes all resources in support of and/or related to all of their research endeavors. This includes foreign financial interests and support. Failures by some investigators at these grantees to disclose substantial contributions of resources from foreign entities (including foreign governments) have raised concerns about threats to the integrity of NIH-supported research. How OIG Did This Review. To determine how grantees (1) ensure that investigators disclose all foreign financial interests and support and (2) review this information prior to reporting information to NIH, we administered online surveys to 773 grantees that (as of July 1, 2020) received NIH funding for FY 2020. We administered online surveys from October 2020 to January 2021. We received responses from 617 grantees.</dc:description>
