The National Science Foundation’s Division of Mathematical Sciences (NSF DMS), in collaboration with the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) and the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA), is offering this grant. This program aims to advance mathematical and statistical algorithms for the crucial detection of chemical agents, biological threats, and threats identified through geospatial information. The grant seeks proposals from the mathematical sciences community, focusing on two primary areas: developing sophisticated mathematical and statistical techniques applicable to genomics, and innovating similar techniques for the comprehensive analysis of data derived from various sensor systems. This initiative represents a significant effort to enhance national security through advanced analytical methods.
