This PIRE competition invites visionary, ambitious, interdisciplinary, use-inspired research proposals that address scientific challenges related to climate change and/or clean energy. Many cutting-edge research questions require international collaboration to achieve important advances. They also require insights from diverse disciplines to...
Introduction The National Science Foundation (NSF) and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have shared interests in a variety of basic and applied scientific and engineering fields. This program is designed to facilitate collaborative research and educational activities among...
Supports high-risk, high-reward research that addresses scientific and technological challenges associated with the integration of synthetic biology with semiconductor technology.
Invites supplemental funding requests from active NSF awardees to enable the use of commercial quantum-computing platforms. Supplements provide support for graduate students and platform fees.
Invites requests for supplemental funding from existing quantum information science and engineering research awardees to add a new — or strengthen an existing — international dimension to their award.
Invites supplemental funding requests from active awardees of NSF’s EFRI, ERC and IUCRC programs to offer mentored research opportunities to high school students, STEM teachers, undergraduate STEM students, faculty and veterans.
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.
Invites supplemental funding requests from NSF-funded PIs to support graduate students to pursue forensic science or criminal justice research internship and training opportunities that will complement their academic research training.
An Ideas Lab is an intensive meeting that brings together multiple diverse perspectives to focus on finding innovative cross-disciplinary solutions to a grand challenge problem (see below and PAPPG Chapter II.F.6. for more information about this type of proposal). The...
Invites proposals that address critical needs in research and education and develop the workforce for advanced manufacturing. Proposed projects should involve collaboration with Manufacturing USA Institutes and enable innovation in their technical focus areas.
Supports research on emerging next-generation wireless, mobile communication, networking, sensing and computing systems and on global-scale services — with a focus on improving the performance and resilience of these networked systems.
Encourages supplemental funding requests from awardees in four specified programs to support data science education for grade 6-12 students and teachers.
Reaffirms NSF’s commitment to advancing reproducibility and replicability in science and encourages the submission of research and education proposals on the topic to NSF’s programs.
Invites supplemental funding requests from active NSF awardees to provide graduate students with professional development opportunities in geothermal energy, technology and its application areas.
Informs the research and innovation communities of important changes to the PFI solicitation. Changes have been made to the lineage requirement, the award amount and full proposal deadlines.
Announces the creation of a program that supports fundamental research to address the opportunities and challenges digital technologies present for the next industrial revolution.
Encourages early-stage collaborations across the biological and engineering sciences and the translation of research findings into use-inspired projects that inform societal impact and future commercialization.
Supports research centers addressing cybersecurity and privacy, drawing on expertise in one or more of these areas: computing, communication and information sciences; engineering; economics; education; mathematics; statistics; social and behavioral sciences.
Criminal networks that illegally traffic in everything from people and drugs to human organs, natural resources and nuclear material pose grave threats to the health, prosperity and security of our Nation. As an important example, the opioid epidemic in the...
