Foreign Influence
Foreign influence refers to actions by foreign governments, institutions, or individuals that could improperly impact or exploit U.S.-funded research, researchers, or academic systems. These actions may involve undisclosed relationships, coercion, or conduct that conflicts with U.S. interests or policies.
The U.S. Government, including Congress and federal agencies, is increasingly concerned about undisclosed foreign influence on U.S. institutions and researchers. Failure to disclose these foreign relationships and activities may jeopardize eligibility for future funding.
The Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) issued guidance outlining how foreign interests and activities should be disclosed in accordance with National Security Presidential Memorandum–33 (NSPM-33).
NSF has announced a forthcoming policy (Effective October 1, 2026) prohibiting NSF-funded research collaborations with entities on specified U.S. restricted party lists. Once effective, senior/key personnel on NSF awards will be prohibited from:
- Collaborating with a restricted entity, or an employee of a restricted entity, on NSF-funded research;
- Holding an appointment or position with a restricted entity; and
- Receiving research support from a restricted entity during the NSF award period.
To learn more and view the U.S. restricted party lists, visit: NSF Prohibition on Collaborations with Restricted Entities.
On July 28, 2026, FCC’s Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau announced the addition of Foreign-Produced Power Inverters and Advanced Robotic Devices to the FCC Covered List that have been determined to pose an unacceptable risk to the national security and safety of the United States and its citizens.
Know the Warning Signs
International collaboration is a normal part of research. These situations may require additional review, disclosure, or guidance from Research Security.
- Hidden affiliations with foreign universities, labs, or governments.
- Participation in foreign "talent recruitment programs" not disclosed to the university or sponsor.
- Side agreements that conflict with U.S. grant terms.
- Sharing controlled or sensitive research (e.g., CUI, export-controlled information) without authorization.
- Providing early access to results before publication.
- Moving research materials or intellectual property abroad without approval.
- Receiving foreign funding that overlaps with U.S.-funded research.
- Dividing time or effort in ways that violate grant commitments.
- Prioritizing foreign sponsors over U.S. obligations.
- Influencing research direction for strategic or national interests of another country.
- Recruiting researchers to replicate U.S. research abroad.
