Emory update on federal government directives

The following message was sent via email to the Emory community on Jan. 28.


Dear Faculty, Staff and Students,

Over the past week we have monitored the announcements, directives and policy changes coming from the new administration — including the latest directive related to federal funding. Many specifics remain unknown. We understand that many of you are concerned about the impact of these changes on your academic and research pursuits. We have received your messages and share your concerns.

We are working with leaders across Emory, including academic deans, to understand how these directives impact the university. As Emory and other institutions across the nation navigate this uncertainty, we will communicate additional information — either directly to impacted individuals or more broadly as necessary — as it becomes available.

In times of change and uncertainty we are reminded of the critical nature of Emory’s mission: to create, preserve, teach and apply knowledge in the service of humanity. This mission will guide us in the weeks to come. We encourage each of you to remain focused on the important work that makes you a vital part of our community.


Best,

Ravi Thadhani
Executive Vice President for Health Affairs

Lanny Liebeskind
Interim Provost
