NSF - Enabling Discovery through GEnomic Tools (EDGE) 20-532 Full announcement |
The Enabling Discovery through GEnomic Tools (EDGE) program supports genomic research that addresses the mechanistic basis of complex traits in diverse organisms within the context (environmental, developmental, social, and/or genomic) in which they function. The EDGE program also continues to support the development of innovative tools, technologies, resources, and infrastructure that advance biological research focused on the identification of the causal mechanisms connecting genes and phenotypes. The two tracks for submission have changed. They now are: FUNCTIONAL GENOMIC TOOLS TRACK: for proposals aimed at developing tools for gene manipulation and/or phenotyping, analytical approaches or infrastructure to overcome one or more blocks to direct tests of gene function on demand; this track combines the comprehensive and targeted tracks from the previous EDGE solicitation. COMPLEX MULTIGENIC TRAITS TRACK: for proposals focused on hypothesis driven research to understand causal mechanisms connecting genomes and complex multigenic organismal phenomes across a variety of environmental, developmental, social, and/or genomic contexts. | |
Future Leaders for Food & Agriculture - Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research (FFAR) Fellows Full announcement |
DEADLINES: February 22, 2025: Stipend + Professional Development Fellowships; April 15, 2025: Professional Development Fellowships The Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research (FFAR) and North Carolina State University are pleased to announce that the FFAR Fellows program is accepting applications for its 2025-2028 cohort. The program provides 30-member cohorts of PhD students with three years of professional development training and support designed to complement the research training students receive in their home institutions. Students from universities in the U.S. and Canada are eligible to apply (see the attached flyer or here for additional eligibility information). All 30 fellows gain from the professional development portion of the program ($10,000/year value). Eight of the 30 fellows access additional funds for assistantship, tuition, and fees ($55,000/year). Fellows are co-sponsored by FFAR and an equal match from industry, NGOs, or other sources of non-U.S. federal funds. |
