Dear Colleagues:

All NSF proposals must include a Data Management and Sharing Plan that describes what data/samples will be collected, what analyses will be done, and how the project will provide open and timely access to meta data, data, preserved or archived samples, derived products (e.g., models and model output), and other information on the project during and after the project’s completion. The Data Management and Sharing Plan also must specifically discuss how the investigators will achieve the specific OCE data archiving and reporting requirements described below in this document. If the project is not expected to generate new data, samples or derived data products, the Data Management and Sharing Plan can

Dear Colleagues:

The purpose of this Dear Colleague Letter (DCL) is to invite the research community to submit suggestions for Topic Ideas to be considered for the FY 2026/27 Emerging Frontiers in Research and Innovation (EFRI) Program Solicitation. Suggestions for EFRI Topic Ideas are currently solicited and vetted every two years. Selected Topic(s) become the focus of research supported by the EFRI Program. Research proposals that address the specified Topic area(s) are invited via the EFRI solicitation.

This DCL is not a request for submission of a single research proposal idea; rather, it is designed to solicit submission of emerging topic areas of potentially transformative research and innovation. Candidate topic ideas, including a 500-word description, may be submitted at the URL given below.

The deadline for topic idea
