Synopsis of Program: Despite decades of research, scientists do not fully understand the dynamic nature of pathogen and disease emergence. Emerging (and re-emerging) pathogens represent a continuing risk to national security because they threaten health (animal, human, and ecosystem) and...
Supports foundational and transformative research to advance the design, engineering and fabrication of organoid systems that are capable of processing information dynamically while interfacing with non-living systems.
Supports research on what constitutes and promotes responsible research conduct and how to instill that knowledge in researchers, practitioners and educators across all career stages.
Supports the establishment of a new Synthesis Center focused on organismal resilience and plasticity as well as training new generations of researchers in data-intensive, open, cross-disciplinary and collaborative science.
Encourages proposals that enhance our knowledge of pathogen transmission dynamics through novel technologies, such as remote sensing, precision treatment and mathematical or computational models, including artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Supports research in mathematical biology that addresses significant biological questions by applying nontrivial mathematics or developing new theories — particularly from foundational mathematics, including artificial intelligence or machine learning.
Supports research, implementation and education projects involving multi-sector teams that focus on the responsible design, development or deployment of technologies.
Supports research and education to overcome barriers and enable new manufacturing capabilities. Focuses on cybermanufacturing, eco-manufacturing and biomanufacturing.
Encourages proposals that combine methods in agricultural, biological, and computer and information science and engineering to address pressing challenges in digital agriculture.
Dear Colleagues: For almost four decades, the National Science Foundation (NSF) has played a leading role in provisioning advanced cyberinfrastructure (CI) capabilities for our nation's researchers to advance science and engineering (S&E) discovery and innovation. Today, as part of a...
Encourages transatlantic collaborative research proposals in the biological sciences focused on areas at the intersection of the National Science Foundation and the UK Research and Innovation Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council.
Encourages proposals for activities that inform and support efforts to increase the participation, inclusion and well-being of all, to include LGBTQI+ individuals in STEM to promote a diverse and innovative science and engineering workforce.
Encourages research proposals using comparative approaches to identify evolutionary convergent adaptations to life’s challenges and the mechanisms that underlie them.
Supports research that designs and builds synthetic or artificial cells or cell-like systems to explore questions about biological function or evolution of life processes, as well as for biotechnology applications.
Supports research on the interaction of technology and people in the workplace, with a focus on the design of intelligent technologies and work organization that improves the quality of work, ensures worker safety, and enhances societal impact.
Encourages proposals that foster innovative and diverse uses of collections and/or associated digital data for novel research, education and training applications within and across STEM.
Encourages the submission of interdisciplinary proposals to develop novel all-in-one biosensing and actuating technologies for rapidly evolving or emerging biological threats.
Invites supplemental funding requests from active awardees of several NSF programs to support research, training, public outreach and workshops relating to development of the spectrum workforce.
Supports collaborative research involving scientists from the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom in two focus areas: multi-scale crop physiology or programmable plants.
Invites supplemental funding requests from awardees of specific NSF programs to provide research opportunities to veterans who are undergraduate and graduate students, K-12 teachers or community college faculty.
Invites transatlantic collaborative research proposals that address the priorities of both UK Research and Innovation Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council and participating Divisions in NSF’s Directorate for Biological Sciences.
