Where Research Begins

We’re excited to announce the next session in Season 3 of the Office of Sponsored Programs’ Lunch & Learn "How-To" Series. Join us on Tuesday, April 14, from 12–1 PM for Episode 3, “Subawards: Start to Finish.”

Novelution is the Office of Research & Innovation’s upgraded electronic research administration system and will gradually replace COEUS and DragonSPOT with several new modules. The new system is designed to streamline and modernize research administration at Drexel, providing greater transparency, improved functionality, and a more integrated experience for principal investigators, administrators, and research support teams.

I’m delighted to introduce Dr. Sarah Archibald as the Office of Research & Innovation’s new Associate Vice Provost for Research Compliance & Regulatory Affairs! Sarah has extensive research compliance experience, with more than 20 years of leadership in higher education, overseeing complex ethics and regulatory programs across research, civil rights, and academic environments. She has coordinated cross-functional compliance initiatives, implemented enterprise-wide auditing protocols, and fostered university cultures grounded in accountability and ethical decision-making.
