Streamlining, Response to Simplify Research Regulations (5/6/26) "With unabating challenges to US science and innovation leadership and rafts of recommendations to reduce the regulatory friction slowing federally sponsored research, failure to act in a meaningful manner now is tantamount to self-sabotage.
Implementing commonsense measures to harmonize, streamline, and eliminate duplicative and unnecessary research regulations would establish a more effective regulatory oversight framework and help to rebalance and strengthen the research partnership that underpins American science, innovation, and competitiveness." Inside Higher Ed: Board Ouster Raises Further Concerns About NSF’s Future (4/28/26): Matt Owens, president of COGR...said in an email that “NSF has been without a confirmed director for a year. Its budget has been cut and proposed cuts are on the table again. And now, NSF has been set further adrift with the arbitrary dismissal of NSB members.
While COGR said it’s “committed to finding ways to get more for taxpayers’ research investments,” Americans “deserve better than a series of misguided policy proclamations that harm our nation’s research enterprise, economy, health, and security.” Chemical & Engineering News: NSF moves to enact cap on indirect costs (5/5/25): In an emailed statement to C&EN, Matt Owens, president of COGR (an association of research institutions), agrees that the new NSF policy is “a disaster in the making for American science & technology and our nation’s continuing competitiveness.” Washington Post: National Science Foundation cuts funding for universities (5/2/25): “From semiconductors, the internet, and MRI scans to 3-D printing and the national Doppler radar network, NSF-funded university research has helped make our nation the global science, innovation, and economic leader. Cutting research indirect cost reimbursement is another step toward surrendering American R&D leadership,” Matt Owens, president of COGR, an association of research institutions, said in an email. Inside Higher Ed: NIH Speeds Up Implementation of New Public Access Policy (5/2/25): “This new effective date will impose extra burdens on researchers and their institutions to meet the deadline,” Matt Owens, president of COGR, which represents research institutions, said in a statement Wednesday. “Ironically, at the same time NIH is accelerating implementation of this policy, the agency is adding new burdensome certification and financial reporting requirements for grant recipients. This runs counter to the administration’s efforts to reduce regulations.” Read COGR President Matt Owens' statement in full here.
Inside Higher Ed: Department of Energy Caps Universities’ Indirect Research Costs at 15% (4/14/25) ...COGR, an association of research universities, affiliated medical centers and independent research institutes, characterized the policy as “ruinous,” writing in a statement that “our nation’s economic competitors are laughing at another self-inflicted policy wound that will slow the pace of American research and innovation.” Read COGR President Matt Owens' statement in full here. “This is not only bad for NSF, it is bad for American scientific leadership as the U.S.

Science Magazine: Trump Order Aims to Politicize Decisions on Federal Science Grants (8/8/25) That’s another bad idea, says Matt Owens, president of COGR, one of 10 scientific organizations that are urging Congress and OMB to adopt an alternative reimbursement method they say accounts for how much universities actually spend. “The administration refuses to acknowledge and pay for the true costs of research critical to the security of the nation and the health of its people,” Owens says. Science Magazine: What does Trump's call for "gold standard science' really mean? (5/27/25): ...some research advocates, while embracing those principles, think Trump has credibility problems of his own that lead them to question his intent. They note that the new order says nothing about preventing political interference before disseminating scientific findings—which scientists say happened many times during Trump’s first term.
“That’s quite an omission,” says Kris West of COGR, a consortium of higher education institutions that track federal research policies. Instead, the order on Restoring Gold Standard Science gives a political appointee the power to decide when those findings need to be “corrected” and to take disciplinary action against those seen as the perpetrators of misinformation. “And putting that power in the hands of a political appointee who doesn’t need to consult with scientific experts before making a decision is very troubling,” West adds. The Chronicle of Higher Education: "Every revenue source is at risk': Under Trump, Research Universities are Cutting Back (5/22/25): Matt Owens, president of COGR, which advocates on research policy, said the budget cuts to date have already had an impact. “The uncertainty unquestionably is slowing the pace at which research is performed,” Owens said. Chemical & Engineering News: Universities forge a bumpy new path on indirect research costs (3/26/26) "It's probably going to be more work than the current model," says Cindy Hope, director for costing and financial compliance at COGR.

"That's the price of being more accurate." But Hope, an adviser to the subject matter experts who developed FAIR, notes that the model does accommodate institutions with fewer administrative or financial resources by giving them the option to use a more simplified rate structure.There are also a number of big outstanding questions, including: How much money will universities end up recouping under FAIR? “The FAIR model was developed to say, ‘Here’s what the costs are,’ not ‘Here’s what the government should pay for’ necessarily,” Hope says. “I don’t think anyone anticipates that the federal government will, or should, pay 100% of the allocable cost.” Science: Talking back: An unprecedented assault has forced the U.S.
scientific community to rethink its advocacy tactics (1/21/26) “It became clear that the policy and political environment was going to be far from business as usual,” recalls Matt Owens, who has spent 3 decades working in science policy and is president of COGR, which represents research universities on regulatory matters. The Chronicle of Higher Education: Higher Ed May Be In Trouble if the Government is Shut Down Much Longer (10/30/25) “The longer these shutdowns go on, the more acute the problems it causes,” said Matt Owens, president of the Council on Governmental Relations. “More institutions are likely to experience lapses in funding as awards and funding increments end with no new awards or funding coming in.” With federally funded research, institutions can float funds around to avoid stalled projects and “make the payroll,” Owens said. Over time, though, there’s less money available to move. “And so that becomes a significant financial and cash-management issue,” he said.
