Dear Colleagues:

With this Dear Colleague Letter (DCL), the US National Science Foundation (NSF) encourages submission of interdisciplinary proposals that capitalize on opportunities for bringing fundamental plasma science and engineering investigations to bear on two focus areas of societal and technological need:

removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from the environment; and novel and more efficient methods for fabrication of microelectronics.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large group of synthetic chemicals that have been used for decades in consumer products and manufacturing processes. Because of the strength of the carbon-fluorine bonds, PFAS do not degrade easily and are persistent in water and soil. These “forever chemicals” are now widely distributed in the environment. Growing evidence shows that environmental PFAS bioaccumulate in fish, wildlife,

Synopsis

Many of the most pressing challenges in research and innovation require collaboration across national and disciplinary boundaries to achieve important advances. A growing number of topics are best addressed on a multilateral basis, building partnerships that leverage diverse expertise, data, infrastructure, and perspectives to advance understanding on critical topics of regional or global importance. At the same time, funders, research organizations, and researchers alike typically have limited experience with multilateral partnerships.  

The Office of International Science and Engineering’s MultiPLEx program seeks to support visionary, and ambitious international multilateral research partnerships that are required to hasten progress in addressing grand challenges by leveraging research excellence in the U.S. and around the globe. The program also seeks to advance understanding of effective multilateral collaboration.

MultiPLEx  welcomes proposals that

Address urgent research and/or societal challenge of global importance (including but not limited to critical

Important Information And Revision Notes This solicitation provides instructions for preparation of proposals submitted to the Cultural Anthropology Program (CA) for Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement Grants (DDRIG). This revision replaces target dates with deadlines. This revision eliminates the requirement that if the proposal is a resubmission, the first paragraph of the project description must summarize how the proposal has responded to previous reviewer concerns. This revision does not alter the restriction that a DDRIG proposal may only be re-submitted once without a waiver for an additional submission. This revision reaffirms the explanation of NSF’s mission to support fundamental research,
