This year, we placed a special emphasis on research security and educating faculty on evolving federal and state requirements. As the landscape of research compliance becomes increasingly complex, our commitment to safeguarding the integrity of our research is paramount. We aim to ensure that our faculty are well-equipped to navigate these changes and to promote a culture of awareness and responsibility across the university.

Join us as we explore the significant strides made by our researchers in 2023 and highlight the proactive measures we’ve taken to provide resources to the UH community.

A Focus on Research Security

In 2023, the Division of Research launched a major initiative to communicate new federal and state research security requirements for researchers. ​

To date, DOR has published content in nine areas covering Digital Persistent Identifiers, Malign Foreign Talent Recruitment Programs, IT and data management, international travel, and export control. The Research Security landing page on the UH Research website generated almost 2,000 views. ​
