GENERAL INFORMATION

What type of projects and PIs will the NSF TRAILBLAZER Impact Award (TRAILBLAZER) support?

The NSF TRAILBLAZER Engineering Impact Award Program will only accept single Principal Investigator (PI) proposals to perform transformative research in engineering. The PI’s research expertise and track record of creativity, innovation, and collaboration will be leveraged to propose bold new research directions distinct from previous or current research and convene and lead an effective team to conduct the proposed research activities.

The TRAILBLAZER program will support groundbreaking research projects that seek to significantly advance engineering research and innovation beyond what is currently being done in engineering and beyond the PI’s recent and prior research activities. In the Project Description, PIs must describe how the proposed new research area involves the development of innovative approaches designed to evaluate unconventional hypotheses. “Projects that are extensions of the PI’s ongoing or

New research shows that a key regulatory enzyme inhibitor discovered in the laboratory of Bruce Hammock, Ph.D. can alleviate inflammation linked to health issues that are caused by a high-sugar diet. The study, conducted in a mouse model, show promise as a basis for developing treatments of gut barrier dysfunction caused by high sugar consumption in humans.

Dear Colleagues:

The National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) Pilot, led by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) in collaboration with 12 other agencies, is seeking datasets that will enable a broader set of researchers and educators, particularly newcomers to AI, to join the AI research and education community. This Dear Colleague Letter (DCL) seeks to identify datasets that could be used by researchers and educators to facilitate the development of AI skills in the classroom, at a workshop, or in other educational environments to further develop the nation’s AI workforce. The criteria that will be used to choose the datasets are provided below under How to Respond to this DCL. NSF plans to point to these datasets through the NAIRR Pilot portal.

The NAIRR Pilot was launched
