The National Science Foundation (NSF) recently issued a new version of the NSF PAPPG 23-1. The Office of Sponsored Projects would like to remind researchers that this new version of the PAPPG includes the following significant changes taking effect next week:
The University of Utah’s internal competition for the NSF Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Program is now available! The MRI Program is a highly competitive limited submission opportunity that serves to increase access to multi-user scientific and engineering instrumentation for research and research training at institutions of higher education and not-for-profit scientific/engineering research organizations. An MRI award supports the acquisition or development of a multi-user research instrument that is, in general, too costly and/or not appropriate for support through other NSF programs or funding mechanisms.
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is currently accepting applications for the Alan T. Waterman Award. This annual award is a prestigious honor for early-career scientists and engineers, recognizing outstanding young researchers in any field of science or engineering. In addition to a medal, the awardee receives a discretionary grant of $1,000,000 over a five-year period for scientific research or advanced study in the mathematical, physical, biological, engineering, social or other sciences at an institution of their choice.
The NSF is hosting several informative events around the recently announced NSF Regional Innovation Engines opportunity. Those interested in submitting a concept paper to this call are strongly encouraged to attend one or several of the events listed HERE. All events are free, but require registration.
