SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Science and Technology Council 
(NSTC) Subcommittee on Scientific Integrity (the Subcommittee) was 
established in response to the 2023 NSTC Framework for Federal 
Scientific Integrity Policy and Practice. The Subcommittee is 
supporting the development of scientific integrity policies at Federal 
departments and agencies and seeks public input on the development and 
implementation of these policies and associated procedures and 
practices. NSF, on behalf of the Federal agencies and departments 
participating in the Subcommittee, is organizing two virtual listening 
sessions to hear from members of the public. Perspectives gathered 
during the virtual listening sessions will inform: (1) Federal 
agencies' finalization of Scientific Integrity Policies, in response to 
the Framework and its implementation memorandum from the Office of 
Science and Technology Policy; (2) Federal agency processes, 
procedures, and practices related to scientific integrity; and (3) 
other elements of Federal implementation of the Framework.
    Staff from the U.S. National Science Foundation will facilitate the 
listening sessions, which may be recorded for use by the Subcommittee 
and shared with agencies implementing a scientific integrity policy. 
Participation in a listening session will imply consent to capture 
participants' names, voices, and likenesses. Anything said may be 
recorded and transcribed for use by the Subcommittee or federal 
agencies that receive the feedback. Moderators will manage the 
discussion and order of remarks.

like to provide more detailed information may email
