NSF FUNDING OPPORTUNITY WEBINAR
NSF Macrosystems Biology and NEON-Enabled Science Solicitation and RCN Dear Colleague Letter
What: The Macrosystems Biology and NEON-Enabled Science (MSB-NES) Program of the National Science Foundation will host a Webinar to explain the new (NSF 19-538) and the (NSF 19-031) encouraging proposals for Research Coordination Networks.
Note that the MSB-NES proposal deadline is February 25, 2019 at 5:00 your local time.
When: Wednesday, February 6 at 2:00 PM EST (1:00 CST, 12:00 MST, 11:00 PST)
Who: Mike Binford, Dan Gruner, Roland Roberts, and Matt Kane of NSF; Kate Thibault, Chris McKay, Claire Lunch, Megan Jones, and Gene Kelly of the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON).
How: You can register just before the meeting but might experience delays because of too many people registering at the same time.
What will you learn: Changes from previous Macrosystems Biology solicitations, new solicitation-specific review criteria (especially the prioritization for proposals that make substantive use of NEON resources and what “substantive use� means), the status of NEON, how to engage with NEON scientists, Assignable Assets policies, and the opening of a new opportunity for NEON Research Coordination Networks.
Webinar Format: 15-20 minutes of pre-recorded description of the program solicitation and NEON resources, followed by 30+ minutes of questions and answers.
This Webinar will be recorded and posted for later viewing.
