Division of Physics: Investigator-Initiated Research Projects
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is offering a grant opportunity titled "Division of Physics: Investigator-Initiated Research Projects". This grant aims to support physics research and the development of future scientists in colleges and universities across various physics disciplines. The grant covers a wide range of research areas, including atomic, molecular and optical physics, elementary particle physics, gravitational physics, integrative activities in physics, nuclear physics, particle astrophysics, physics at the information frontier, physics of living systems, plasma physics, and quantum information science. The NSF encourages Principal Investigators (PIs) to consider efforts to increase diversity in the physics community and promote the participation of underrepresented groups in STEM fields. It is important to note that the NSF strongly encourages single proposal submissions for possible co-review, rather than multiple related proposals to different programs. The grant is open to various types of organizations, including foreign organizations (with support limited to the U.S. portion of cooperative projects), for-profit organizations (U.S.-based commercial organizations with strong capabilities in scientific or engineering research or education), non-profit non-academic organizations (independent museums, observatories, research laboratories, professional societies, and similar organizations directly associated with educational or research activities), other Federal Agencies and Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs), state and local governments (state educational offices or organizations and local school districts), and institutions of higher education (two- and four-year IHEs accredited in the U.S.). The grant has an estimated total program funding of $120,000,000. The close date for submission is December 10, 2024. For more information and to submit a proposal, interested parties can visit the NSF Publication 23-615 at http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf23615.
ECosystem for Leading Innovation in Plasma Science and Engineering
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has posted a grant opportunity titled "ECosystem for Leading Innovation in Plasma Science and Engineering". This grant aims to advance knowledge and technological innovation in the field of plasma science and engineering. The program seeks to bring together scientists and engineers from multiple NSF Directorates to conduct translational research at the interface of fundamental plasma science and technological innovation. The program encourages proposals in various topical areas, including plasma surface interactions, atmospheric pressure plasmas, dusty plasmas, sensor development, computational modeling, plasmons in nano-photonics, and chemical measurement science. Proposals should address societal or technological needs within the scope of science and engineering supported by the NSF. The program also emphasizes the importance of diversity and inclusion in the ECLIPSE community and encourages proposals from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), other Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs), and institutions in EPSCoR-eligible jurisdictions. The ECLIPSE program does not replace existing programs and proposals should be submitted to the relevant program. The deadline for proposal submission varies depending on the program.

Air Force Office of Scientific Research
The Air Force Office of Scientific Research has posted a grant opportunity titled "FY24 DEFENSE ESTABLISHED PROGRAM TO STIMULATE COMPETITIVE RESEARCH (DEPSCoR) – RESEARCH COLLABORATION (RC)". This grant aims to create basic research collaborations between a pair of researchers, specifically an Applicant/Principal Investigator (PI) and a Collaborator/co-Principal Investigator (co-PI). The Applicant should be a full-time faculty member who has never served as a PI on a prior DoD directly funded research Prime award, while the Collaborator should be an investigator who has served as a PI on a DoD directly funded research Prime award actively between 1 October 2016 and 30 September 2023. The grant is open to tenured or tenure-track faculty members with appointments at institutions of higher education (IHE) in eligible States/Territories. The DEPSCoR program aims to increase the number of university researchers in eligible States/Territories capable of performing science and engineering (S&E) research responsive to the needs of the Department of Defense (DoD). It also aims to enhance the capabilities of IHE in eligible States/Territories to develop, plan, and execute S&E research that is relevant to the DoD's mission and competitive under the peer-review systems used for awarding Federal research assistance. The DoD plans to award up to $15 million in total funding for this program, with each grant awarding up to $600,000 (total cost) over three years. The funding is subject to availability. For more information and to apply, interested parties can visit the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD [R&E]), Basic Research Office (BRO), DEPSCoR website. The close date for applications is November 25, 2024. For any inquiries, contact Nicole Thomas and Denise Johnson, Grants Officers, at AFRL.AFOSR.DEPSCoRFOA@us.af.mil.
