Materials Innovation Platforms (MIP) is a mid-scale infrastructure program in the Division of Materials Research (DMR) designed to accelerate advances in materials research. MIPs respond to the increasing complexity of materials research that requires close collaboration of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary...
Supports postdoctoral fellows performing impactful research in MPS fields while broadening the participation of groups that are underrepresented in the mathematical and physical sciences.
Dear Colleagues: SCOPE The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) and the U.S.-Israel Binational Science Foundation (BSF) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on Research Cooperation. The MOU provides an overarching framework to encourage collaboration between U.S. and Israeli research...
Supports researchers in quantum information science, mathematical and physical sciences, or computer and information science and engineering to pursue joint research through long-term visits to a host institution.
Supports research and education on biological, biomimetic, bioinspired and bioenabled materials, and on synthetic materials intended for applications where they will be in contact with biological systems.
Invites conference proposals to initiate new collaborations that will advance clean energy technologies and increase their use to benefit the economy, to ensure social justice and to serve the public good.
Encourages interdisciplinary research proposals using plasma science and engineering to address two critical challenges: removing persistent environmental pollutants known as PFAS and developing novel, more efficient methods for microelectronics fabrication.
Encourages Early-concept Grants for Exploratory Research (EAGER) proposals to enhance the security of electronic devices by exploring theories, designs, algorithms, and experimental verification of radio-frequency, analog and mixed-signal techniques.
Encourages supplemental funding requests by current Mathematical and Physical Sciences awardees to support an additional doctorate student. Applicants must be at institutions involved in the Alliances for Graduate Education and the Professoriate program.
Supports research that harnesses fundamental quantum properties to explore new scientific frontiers and develop new technologies at the interface of traditional scientific disciplines.
Supports collaborative research and education in partnership with industry on domain-specific computing, heterogenous integration, and new materials for energy-efficient, enhanced-performance and sustainable semiconductor-based systems.
Invites collaborative supplemental funding requests from awardees of NSF’s Research Traineeship program and its Partnerships for Research and Education in Materials program that focus on broadening participation in materials research.
Invites research proposals to develop AI-inspired tools and techniques in several focus areas with the aims to promote MPS disciplinary research: modeling and simulation, data and model analytics, concept discovery, and physical systems and experimentation.
Supports high-risk, high-reward research that addresses scientific and technological challenges associated with the integration of synthetic biology with semiconductor technology.
Inviting requests which foster interest in the pursuit of studies in the Mathematical and Physical Sciences; and broaden participation of high school students who are in groups that have been traditionally underrepresented and under-served in STEM fields.
Supports research and education in the development of advanced materials to enable transformative advances in electronics, optoelectronics and photonics for use in computing, communications and sensing.
Invites requests to fund workshops on the fundamental drivers of active matter biomaterials that may advance understanding of abiotic-biotic interfaces and be developed into next-generation biomedical technologies.
