About this opportunity
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is seeking applicants for the Ethical and Responsible Research (ER2) grant program. This opportunity aims to fund fundamental research projects that identify factors effective in promoting ethical conduct among STEM researchers, approaches to developing those factors across STEM fields, and why and how those factors increase responsible research. Proposals are encouraged from minority-serving institutions, women's colleges, and organizations serving persons with disabilities, as well as those involving international collaborations. The evaluation will focus on the intellectual merit and broader impacts of the proposed research.
The grant awards typically range from $30,000 to $500,000, with project periods spanning 1-5 years. The work is expected to be primarily performed at academic and research institutions across the United States, with international partners required to secure non-NSF funding.
Synopsis
Ethical and Responsible Research (ER2) research projects use fundamental research to produce knowledge about what constitutes or promotes responsible or irresponsible conduct of research and why, as well as how to best instill responsible conduct of research into researchers, practitioners, and educators at all career stages. In some cases, projects will include the development of interventions or applications to ensure ethical and responsible research conduct. The program funds research projects that identify: (1) factors that are effective in the formation of ethical science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) researchers; (2) approaches to developing those factors in all STEM fields that NSF supports; and (3) why and how those factors and approaches increase responsibly conducted research. Proposals from or involving substantial collaboration with minority-serving institutions, women's colleges, or organizations primarily serving persons with disabilities are strongly encouraged. Proposals that include international collaborations are encouraged if the unique resources, expertise, facilities, or locations of international partners enhance the merit of the proposed work. International partners are required to find non-NSF funding. Please see NSF's PAPPG for further guidance on international collaborations.
