NCHRP's Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Response

01 July 2020

Following the direction of our parent organization the National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, the majority of our staff are working from home, until at least September 7. Business is continuing as usual, and our staff thanks all of our sponsors, volunteers, and contractors who make this program work.

Panels for new NCHRP projects are scheduled to meet beginning in August. In many cases, three meetings are held in the life of a project, and these normally occur in Washington, D.C., but this year—given physical distancing recommendations and uncertainty about or inability to travel—most meetings will be held virtually.
