Currently a 2nd year in my program, my research really only fits into the ARO BAAs

welp, nevermind then lol

It definitely feels discipline and agency-related. No one from ARO Biosciences/Biotech/BME got an update past 3/18, while the updates coming in on 3/26 seem to be mainly materials science apps/engineering-related disciplines from across agencies.

Do we think that not receiving 3/25 or 3/26 updates is a bad sign? I'm still on 3/18...

Interesting. My project while mainly in biosci has AI/ML components, I wonder if that has something to do with it.

Just got an update today, 3/18 ARO Biosciences

Nice! Anyone from ARO get an update today?

several other conferences from various agencies and departments have been canceled as well. I don't think this is necessarily tied to a funding issue but more to do with multiple EOs regarding stopping work on, let's say, "banned" topics. While NIH and NSF bear the brunt of these, the NDSEG falls under several umbrellas that the EOs cover. They don't differentiate by agency as far as I believe so they blanketly apply to everything under the Executive. Likely, DoD received a stop work order related to one of the EOs about the conference.

Where do you guys see if you've received an update? All mine says is under evaluation... EDIT: nevermind, found it. Last update 1/28/25, ARO Biosci
