  1. This update is a game-changer for researchers applying for NSF grants. Streamlining the process of creating and submitting Biographical Sketch documents will not only save time but also empower scientists to focus more on their groundbreaking research!

  2. I am trying to create a revised CV for a new NSF proposal submission. I create a new CV using an older version to fill in most of the fields, BUT I cannot edit the Products (Publications). Is this a glitch in the system? Do I simply need to start with a blank form and add all that information again?

  3. how do i certify my cv so i can download it. I’ve filled all the fields, it is under the 2 page limit in draft view, but the download button says i need to certify it
