The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) is inviting proposals for the Division of Integrative Organismal Systems (IOS) Core Programs Track. - Government Buyer: - U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), Division of Integrative Organismal Systems - Scope of Opportunity: - Research grant funding for studies on organism structure and function - Focus areas include developmental biology, nervous system evolution, biomechanics, physiology, symbioses, genomics, and animal behavior - Emphasis on systems approaches, experimental strategies, modeling, integrative analysis, and advanced computation - Products/Services Requested: - No specific products, OEMs, or vendors required; this is a research grant opportunity - Proposals should outline research methods and approaches relevant to the program's scientific goals - Notable Requirements: - Open to U.S.-based non-profit, non-academic organizations and institutions of higher education - International branch campuses of U.S. institutions must justify the need for project activities abroad - Total program funding is $70,000,000 - No OEMs or commercial product vendors are specified, as this is not a procurement of goods or services
Description
The Division of Integrative Organismal Systems (IOS) Core Programs Track supports research to understand organism structure and function. Proposals are welcomed in core scientific areas including developmental biology, nervous system evolution, biomechanics, physiology, symbioses, genomics, and animal behavior. The program encourages systems approaches for conceptual insights and predictions about organismal properties. Collaborative proposals addressing bold biological questions with integrated approaches are invited, aiming for novel, holistic understanding across biological scales using experimental, modeling, and computational methods.
