DOD to Screen Researchers for Risky Foreign Ties

The Department of Defense published a policy last month that details the process it will use to assess whether applicants for DOD research grants have risky connections to foreign entities and to reject proposals presenting unacceptable risks. The policy is accompanied by a matrix of risk factors that will guide grantmaking decisions by DOD program officers. Some parts of DOD have already implemented this type of review procedure, such as the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency , and the new policy requires all DOD research arms to follow suit.
