Hello
Budget talks are sounding ominous and it appears there may be a shutdown after the current CR expires Friday.
I have not seen any official notice yet from NIH but I assume they will follow the same policies as the previous shutdown, allowing funded grant recipients to draw down funds via PMS.  NSF did issue guidance at the end of FY17, which was the same as previous guidance, saying funded grants can continue work but no payments will be made until the shutdown is over.
Does anyone know other agency plans? 
Thanks.
