ORED Listservs
Research News Listserv
The Research News Listserv is a tool for distributing important research-related information directly to interested faculty and staff of The University of Alabama in an efficient and timely manner. The Listserv will be used only on a limited basis and for information with broad applicability to the University’s researchers and research support staff.
Examples of message topics for this group include major changes at common funding agencies (for example, NIH and NSF), announcements for internal limited submission competitions, training opportunities, and other internal and external announcements that are pertinent to those involved in research activities.
Any employee of the University may opt in or out of receiving emails at any time. We encourage all employees who are involved in the preparation of proposals and/or award management to join this email group.
Listserv Submissions
For your message to be distributed via the Research News Listserv, it must adhere to the above guidelines. Please note, Tuesdays and Thursdays will be reserved for messages by the Office for Research & Economic Development; all other messages will be scheduled for a different day regardless of when they are submitted.
ORED publishes research accolades for UA faculty and staff in the weekly Research Opportunities newsletter. Entries include awards and elections; national and international fellowships; and other professional recognition or achievements. We do not publish conference papers, publications, announcements about received funding, or keynote addresses.
To submit an announcement or research accolade, email Keslie Fendley at kcfendley@ua.edu.
ResearchAdmins Listserv
The ResearchAdmins Listserv is the perfect place to ask your research administration-related questions. Participants include department and college/school administrative and budget personnel from across campus and representatives from OSP and CGA.
The Listserv is a valuable resource where you can receive feedback on the questions you ask and discover answers to questions you didn’t even know you had. It also provides an opportunity for you to share your experience and expertise, helping your Research Administration colleagues in both departmental and central offices.
To join the Listserv, email your name, position, department, and contact information to Darlene Burkhalter at darlene@ua.edu.
