This grant is for the purpose of supporting fundamental engineering and biological research within the Biotechnology, Biochemical, and Biomass Engineering (BBBE) program. Its core aim is to advance the knowledge base related to cellular and biomolecular processes, both *in vivo* and *in vitro*, and to contribute to the development of generic enabling technologies and practical applications. The program encourages research that effectively utilizes renewable biological resources and bioinformatics to address challenges in processing and manufacturing economically important products. Key areas of interest include, but are not limited to, fermentation, enzyme, recombinant DNA, cell culture, metabolic, tissue, and nanobiotechnology, along with quantitative systems biotechnology. The grant emphasizes rigorous quantitative assessments of bioprocesses at various levels, from gene regulation to whole biological systems, fostering a deeper understanding of complex biological interactions.

| Description: | The Biotechnology, Biochemical, and Biomass Engineering (BBBE) program deals with fundamental problems involved in the processing and manufacturing of products of economic importance by effectively utilizing renewable resources of biological origin and bioinformatics originating from genomic and proteomic information. The BBBE program emphasizes basic engineering and biological research that advances the fundamental knowledge base that contributes to a better understanding of cellular and biomolecular processes (in vivo, in vitro, and/or ex vivo) and eventually to the development of generic enabling technology and practical application. Quantitative assessments of bioprocesses and their rates at the levels of gene regulation and expression, signal transduction pathways, posttranslational protein processing, enzymes in reaction systems, metabolic pathways, cells and tissues in cultivation, and biological systems including animal, plant, microbial and insect cells, etc. are considered vital to the successful research projects in the BBBE program. Research projects supported through the BBBE program include, but are not limited to: Fermentation technology Enzyme technology Recombinant DNA technology Cell culture technology Ex vivo and therapeutic stem cell culture technology Metabolic engineering Tissue engineering Nanobiotechnology Quantitative systems biotechnologyThe duration of unsolicited awards is generally one to three years. The average annual award size for the program is $100,000 for individual investigators and $200,000 for multiple investigators. Any proposal received outside the announced dates will be returned without review.The duration of CAREER awards is five years. The submission deadline for Engineering CAREER proposals is in July every year. Please see the following URL for more information: http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2008/nsf08051/nsf08051.jsp.Proposals for Conferences, Workshops, and Supplements may be submitted at any time, but must be discussed with the program director before submission. Grants for Rapid Response Research (RAPID) and EArly-concept Grants for Exploratory Research (EAGER) replace the SGER program. Please note that proposals of these types must be discussed with the program director before submission. Further details are available in the PAPPG download, available below. Please refer to the Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide (PAPPG), January 2009, (NSF 09-1) when you prepare your proposal. |
