Regulators are focusing more attention than ever on the diverse group of federal rules that fall under the umbrella of "research compliance," which includes conflict of interest, human subjects, scientific misconduct, tech transfer, and security and biosafety issues such as select agents and export controls. This collection of rapidly changing government requirements —

• Can torpedo the reputation of even the most prestigious U.S. universities,
• Ranges widely from internal business issues (e.g., effort reporting) to grave matters of international security (e.g., select agents missing from your lab),
• Can have a very sudden impact on your funding and financial well-being,
• Is the focus of complex rules and penalties from a dozen federal agencies,
• Is under constant review on Capitol Hill, where political volleyballs like conflicts of interest have a direct impact on colleges, universities and teaching hospitals.
