We invite you to join our international trade and national security practice on Thursday, May 7, for a webinar on Foreign Influence and Conflicts of Interest in US Universities and Nonprofits Receiving Federal Funds. US universities, nonprofits, and faculty that receive federal funding and grants are required by a number of laws and regulations to disclose foreign gifts and contracts to the federal government. These laws and regulations are based on the understanding that when research institutions fail to meet disclosure requirements, they can compromise the integrity of taxpayer-funded research and allow federal funds to accelerate foreign research and development, sometimes to the detriment of national security interests.
In this webinar, the international trade and national security practice will discuss these obligations and the legal implications of undisclosed ties to foreign institutions at US universities and nonprofits.
