About this opportunity
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is offering the Plant Genome Research Program (PGRP) grant to support genome-scale research that addresses challenging questions of biological, societal, and economic importance. The program encourages the development of innovative tools, technologies, and resources to empower a broad plant research community. Two funding tracks are available: RESEARCH-PGR for genome-scale plant research, and TRTech-PGR for tools, resources, and technology breakthroughs. The evaluation criteria will emphasize the scale and depth of the question being addressed, the creativity of the approach, and the integration of training, broadening participation, and career development. The deadline for this opportunity is not specified.
Typical award values for this program range from $240,000 to over $1.5 million, with project durations spanning 2-5 years. The research is expected to be conducted at academic institutions and research facilities across the United States.
Synopsis
The Plant Genome Research Program (PGRP) supports genome-scale research that addresses challenging questions of biological, societal and economic importance. PGRP encourages the development of innovative tools, technologies and resources that empower a broad plant research community to answer scientific questions on a genome-wide scale. Emphasis is placed on the scale and depth of the question being addressed and the creativity of the approach. Data produced by plant genomics should be usable, accessible, integrated across scales and of high impact across biology. Training, broadening participation, and career development are essential to scientific progress and should be integrated in all PGRP-funded projects. Two funding tracks are currently available:
- RESEARCH-PGR TRACK: Genome-scale plant research to address fundamental questions in biology, including processes of economic and/or societal importance.
- TRTech-PGR TRACK: Tools, resources and technology breakthroughs that further enable functional plant genomics.
