The National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Biological Anthropology Program offers this grant to support basic research focused on human evolution and contemporary human biological variation. This grant is for investigations in areas such as human genetic variation, human and nonhuman primate ecology, adaptability, osteology, bone biology, paleontology, functional anatomy, and primate socioecology. All supported proposals are united by an evolutionary framework, often emphasizing adaptation as a central theme. The program also welcomes proposals with a biocultural or bioarchaeological orientation. This grant frequently bridges the social, behavioral, natural, and physical sciences, and proposals are often jointly reviewed and funded with other programs.

| Description: | The Biological Anthropology Program supports basic research in areas related to human evolution and contemporary human biological variation. Research areas supported by the program include, but are not limited to, human genetic variation, human and nonhuman primate ecology and adaptability, human osteology and bone biology, human and nonhuman primate paleontology, functional anatomy, and primate socioecology. Grants supported in these areas are united by an underlying evolutionary framework, and often by a consideration of adaptation as a central theoretical theme. Proposals may also have a biocultural or bioarchaeological orientation. The program frequently serves as a bridge within NSF between the social and behavioral sciences and the natural and physical sciences, and proposals commonly are jointly reviewed and funded with other programs.
