NCHRP Solicitation for Panel Nominations

Periodically, NCHRP solicits Panel Nominations for upcoming NCHRP projects. Panels that are accepting nominatons can be accessed through this link. We encourage the nomination of members of historically underrepresented groups, including women, young professionals (age 35 and younger), and members of minority groups.

Learn more about the roles of NCHRP panel members and liaisons.

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

16 November 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 June 1, 2021. 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.

For more information, please contact Chris Hedges (Director, CRP) at chedges@nas.edu.
