With this joint solicitation, the NSF and the U.S Department of Commerce (DOC) National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) call for proposals for research to advance fundamental understanding of disaster resilience in support of improved, science-based planning, policy, decisions...
Invites teams of U.S.-Japan researchers to submit proposals for advancing human-centered data and data-driven science and engineering for disaster resilience to either NSF or Japan Science and Technology Agency.
Supports community-driven research partnerships on Earth system hazards to develop actionable solutions that reduce risk and increase social and ecological resilience.
Dear Colleagues: With this Dear Colleague Letter (DCL), the National Science Foundation (NSF) wishes to notify the community that research projects focused on pandemics are considered appropriate for the Civic Innovation Challenge (CIVIC; NSF 20-562), a research and action competition...
Invites Stage 2 proposals from active Stage 1 awardees of NSF’s CIVIC program in one of two focus areas: pre-disaster action around adaptation, resilience and mitigation; or bridging the gap between essential resources, service and community needs.
Supports multi-institutional coastal research hubs that study the interactions between natural, human-built and social systems in coastal populated environments.
Invites proposals that apply new, integrative approaches to understand molecular, biophysical, cellular, and circuit-level neural processes underlying adaptation and resilience in response to changing environments organisms face due to anthropogenic activity.
Invites proposals on ambitious civil infrastructure research through transformative ideas or approaches that will contribute equitable solutions to climate change mitigation and/or adaptation.
Supports education and capacity building at emerging research institutions that will prepare students to conduct community and partner-engaged science to benefit society.
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.
Supports research that incorporates scientific insights about human behavior and social dynamics to better design, develop, rehabilitate and maintain strong and effective American infrastructure.
Invites planning proposals for interdisciplinary research to create evidence-based solutions that strengthen human resilience, security, and quality of life by addressing seemingly intractable challenges that confront society.
Supports use-inspired research to enhance end devices and augment 5G infrastructure so that military, government and critical infrastructure operators can operate through public 5G networks.
Supports interdisciplinary research to create evidence-based solutions that strengthen human resilience, security and quality of life by addressing seemingly intractable challenges that confront society.
NSF invites proposals for interdisciplinary research to create evidence-based solutions that strengthen human resilience, security and quality of life by addressing seemingly intractable challenges that confront our society.
Invites proposals seeking to significantly advance our understanding of global supply chains and their ability to reliably and equitably to deliver goods and products under a wide variety of operating conditions, including disruptions and emerging threats.
Supports doctoral research aimed at understanding patterns, causes and consequences of human social and cultural variation, including research that has implications for confronting anthropogenic problems.
Encourages supplemental funding requests by awardees of NSF’s Division of Materials Research to collaborate with researchers supported by the National Cancer Institute on investigations of cancer as a living material.
The biodiversity found in nature is essential for healthy ecosystems and human well-being. However, the disruption and decline of Earth’s biodiversity is currently occurring at an unprecedented rate. The resulting shifts in biodiversity dynamics — including changes in the scope...
Announces a special funding opportunity in partnership with the Department of Energy for proposals to the Engineering Research Initiation program on marine energy and powering the blue economy and on hydropower and climate change impacts.
Supports research and training on the structure and function of organisms. Core areas supported include development, behavior, neuroscience, physiology, biomechanics and morphology, microbiology, virology and immunology, and plant and animal genomics.
Invites development of Industry-University Cooperative Research Center proposals to model catastrophic impacts and risk assessment of climate change targeting the needs of the financial and insurance sectors of the economy.
Encourages research proposals using comparative approaches to identify evolutionary convergent adaptations to life’s challenges and the mechanisms that underlie them.
Supports research, research coordination networks and conferences that integrate ecological and evolutionary approaches with genomic, physiological, structural, developmental, neural or behavioral understanding of organismal responses to climate change.
