The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering this grant through its Science to Achieve Results (STAR) program to support integrated, transdisciplinary research. This grant is for advancing scientific understanding of potential impacts of manufactured chemicals on ecosystem wellbeing. Specifically, the EPA seeks proposals for systems-based research focused on developing and applying innovative metrics and modeling approaches. The aim is to enhance the evaluation of ecological resilience and impact analyses, ultimately supporting environmental sustainability. Successful projects will leverage emerging and advanced methods, data, and computational tools to address complex systems, identifying key drivers of adverse outcomes for ecological organisms and populations.
