The National Science Foundation’s Directorate for Engineering offers the Emerging Frontiers in Research and Innovation (EFRI) grant. This funding opportunity supports interdisciplinary teams investigating rapidly advancing frontiers of fundamental engineering research. Specifically, this grant is for proposals focusing on Two-Dimensional Atomic-layer Research and Engineering (2-DARE). EFRI aims to identify important emerging areas and foster transformative ideas that significantly shift fundamental engineering knowledge. Proposals are sought for their strong potential long-term impact on national needs or grand challenges. This initiative is coordinated with NSF’s Directorate for Mathematical & Physical Sciences and may involve collaboration with the Air Force Office of Scientific Research.

| Description: | The Directorate for Engineering at the National Science Foundation has established the Office of Emerging Frontiers in Research and Innovation (EFRI) to serve a critical role in focusing on important emerging areas in a timely manner. This solicitation is a funding opportunity for interdisciplinary teams of researchers to embark on rapidly advancing frontiers of fundamental engineering research. For this solicitation, we will consider proposals that aim to investigate emerging frontiers in the following research area: Two-Dimensional Atomic-layer Research and Engineering (2-DARE)This solicitation is coordinated with the Directorate for Mathematical & Physical Sciences within NSF. Additionally, interest within other Federal agencies, specifically Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), may lead to an interagency effort. Submitted proposals may be shared with interested representatives from AFOSR.EFRI seeks proposals with transformative ideas that represent an opportunity for a significant shift in fundamental engineering knowledge with a strong potential for long term impact on national needs or a grand challenge. The proposals must also meet the detailed requirements delineated in this solicitation. |
