The Cyberinfrastructure for Sustained Scientific Innovation (CSSI) program seeks to enable funding opportunities that are flexible and responsive to the evolving and emerging needs in cyberinfrastructure (CI). The program continues to emphasize integrated CI services, quantitative metrics with targets for...
Supports efforts to improve the adoption of cyberinfrastructure resources by the research community and integrate core literacy, skills in advanced cyberinfrastructure, and computational and data-driven methods into undergraduate and graduate education.
Supports projects that deepen the integration of cyberinfrastructure professionals’ services into research, while fostering education, training and recognition that address CI workforce development needs.
Supports the research of pre-tenure faculty in mathematical and physical sciences, with an emphasis on those at institutions that traditionally do not receive significant NSF funding, such as minority-serving, predominantly undergraduate or R2 institutions.
Supports partnerships between institutions that provide pathways into research and broaden the participation of individuals from groups underrepresented in astronomy.
Dear Colleagues: SCOPE The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) and the US-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...
The MPS-Ascend External Mentoring (MPS-Ascend EM) program aims to fund an institution (or collaboration of institutions) to provide a mentored career development program specifically designed for two cohorts of MPS-Ascend Fellows funded through the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Ascending Postdoctoral Research...
Encourages proposals to study other worlds as a way to broaden and deepen understanding of the Earth and its evolution, or use geoscience knowledge to understand the environments of other worlds.
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.
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.
Invites U.S.-Swiss collaborations at the intersection of the Swiss National Science Foundation’s three research divisions and participating NSF programs.
Supports astronomical activities that cost up to $30 million, including: limited term, self-contained science projects; long-term mid-scale facilities; development investments for future mid-/large-scale projects; and community open-access capabilities.
Invites proposals and supplemental funding requests to programs in NSF’s Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences and Division of Astronomical Sciences for science and outreach surrounding the 2023 and 2024 solar eclipses.
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.
Invites proposals and supplemental funding requests that advance dynamic and agile spectrum sharing by studying its human environment, which includes economic, social and incentive issues.
Invites collaborations between the U.S. and Czech research communities in the areas of artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, plasma science and cybersecurity & privacy.
Supports MPS-Ascending postdoctoral research fellows who transition into tenure track faculty positions in any scientific area supported by the following divisions: Astronomical Sciences, Chemistry, Materials Research, Mathematical Sciences, and Physics.
