Federal Research Priorities for
2014
The Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) is part of the executive branch of the federal government to provide advice to the President on Science and Technology. One function of OSTP is to provide guidance to the federal funding agencies, such as NSF, NIH, DOE, on priority areas that will receive funding in the President’s budget. Below is a summary of these areas.
Advanced manufacturing
Agencies should
give priority to those programs
that advance the state of the art in
manufacturing, with particular emphasis on government-industry-university partnerships
and enabling
technologies (such as robotics, materials development, and additive manufacturing) that benefit multiple
sectors, as described
in the National Strategic Plan for
Advanced Manufacturing.
Clean
energy
Agencies should
give priority to R&D to advance clean-energy technologies; R&D to address
the manufacturing challenges of clean-energy technologies; R&D to advance meteorological and oceanic forecasting to support deployment of clean-energy
technologies; and R&D to increase
energy efficiency in industry, buildings, and manufacturing.
Global
climate change
Particular emphasis
should be given to research that advances understanding of vulnerabilities in human and biogeophysical systems and their relationships to climate extremes,
thresholds, and tipping points. Specific areas where progress is needed include observations to detect trends
in extremes; integration of observation into
models; attribution of change to human or natural causes; integrated research
on Earth and human systems; simulation and prediction at spatial and temporal scale conducive to decision making; and adaptation responses to changing
frequency and intensity
of extreme events.
R&D for informed policy-making and management
Agencies, especially those with primary
missions other than R&D, should give priority
to R&D that strengthens the scientific basis for decision-making, particularly with regard to
health, safety, and environmental impacts. This includes
efforts to enhance the accessibility and usefulness of data and tools for decision
support. Agencies should
give priority to R&D
that advances the delivery of the following
policy goals: ecosystem
and landscape-scale
management; implementation of the National
Ocean Policy and other priority
ecosystem and restoration initiatives; sustainable stewardship of critical energy,
mineral, air, water, and
species resources; implementation of Federal sustainability and adaptation initiatives; and development of sustainable food production systems
that minimize the use
of inputs such as
water, energy, pesticides, and fertilizer and increase the productivity of agriculture while minimizing environmental impacts.
Information Technology Research and Development
Within the interagency Networking and Information Technology Research and Development initiative, agencies
should give priority
to investments that address the challenges of, and tap the opportunities afforded
by, the Big Data revolution- the fast-growing volume of large and
complex collections of digital data….
Agencies should
also give priority
to research guided
by the Trustworthy Cyberspace: Strategic Plan for Cybersecurity R&D
Programs to develop technologies that can protect our systems against current
and future cyber-attacks.
Nanotechnology
Within the interagency National
Nanotechnology Initiative, agencies
should give priority
to implementation of the 2011
Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) Research Strategy, presenting an approach to ensuring the safe, effective, and responsible development and use of nanotechnology; and support for the Nanotechnology Signature Initiatives…
Biological Innovation
Agencies should
give priority to R&D investments that have the potential to foster biological innovations, in particular
enhancing translational sciences
and science that supports regulation to accelerate innovation and regulatory decision-making, and enhancing
post-secondary and graduate-training programs to ensure that existing
programs adequately prepare students
for the bioeconomy workforce.
Science,
technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education
In
keeping with the forthcoming Federal STEM-education strategic plan, agencies
should give priority to programs that use evidence to guide program design and
implementation and improve measurement of outcomes. Agencies should also
enhance coordination with other agencies and focus their funding on those areas
of STEM education where the Federal government can have maximum impact.
These areas include engaging more citizens in STEM, preparing effective STEM
teachers, improving undergraduate STEM success, and better supporting the
participation and success in STEM of individuals from historically
underrepresented groups.
Innovation
and commercialization
Agencies
should promote innovation and commercialization from Federal R&D
investments, where appropriate, through support for inducement prizes,
early-stage technology development, university-industry partnerships, and
efforts to better link graduate training with both private and public-sector
workforce needs. Such efforts should be aligned with the Administration's
Cross-Agency Priority Goal to improve performance across Federal services for
entrepreneurs and small businesses.

NSF Major
Research Instrumentation Program Limited Submission Deadline
The NSF Major Research Instrumentation Program
(MRI) (http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=5260) serves to increase access to shared scientific and engineering
instruments for research and research training in our Nation's institutions of
higher education, museums, science centers, and not-for-profit organizations.
This program especially seeks to improve the quality and expand the scope of
research and research training in science and engineering by providing shared
instrumentation that fosters the integration of research and education in
research-intensive learning environments. Development and acquisition of
research instrumentation for shared inter- and/or intra-organizational use are
encouraged, as are development efforts that leverage the strengths of private
sector partners to build instrument development capacity at academic
institutions.
The internal deadline for limited preproposals for MRI is 3:00
p.m. Friday, Nov. 16, 2012. The preproposals should be mailed to limitedsubmissions@ucr.edu and
- Should be 4-6 pages in length, should indicate whether the
proposed instrument represents an acquisition or development project, and
should provide an estimated total project cost and funding source for
required cost sharing;
- Should discuss both the
intellectual merit and broader impacts of the instrument (including a
brief statement concerning its impact on training and education);
- Should contain a brief
discussion of the project management plan, including development timeline
if a development project, where the instrument will be housed, and if
major space renovations are needed to accommodate installation and
operation of the instrument;
- Should discuss if and how the
instrument will be available for shared use both within UCR and to
external users (e.g. researchers from other institutions or industry);
- Should contain a list of users
with a list of active grants and NSF grants within the past 5 years.
- Preproposals do not need to include
detailed budgets or budget narratives or project evaluation or data
management plans.
Seminar Tobacco-Related Disease Research
Program 10/29
Speaker: Kamlesh Asotra, GaneShiva
Consultants
DATE: Monday, October 29, 2012
LOCATION: Science Library Room 240
TIME: 11:00 am
The Tobacco-Related Disease
Research Program (TRDRP) funds research that enhances understanding of tobacco
use, prevention and cessation, the social, economic and policy-related aspects
of tobacco use, and tobacco-related diseases in the State of California.
Awards are available for pre-doctoral fellowships, post-doctoral
fellowships, exploratory research, and research projects.
· PI Letter of Intent (LOI) Submission Window: Sept 5 through Nov 13, 2012
· Full Proposal and Signature Page Submission: Jan 24, 2013 Noon
· Call for Propsoals: http://www.trdrp.org/fundingOpps/call.php
Dr. Astoria will discuss the
TRDRP program and strategies for Successful Grant Writing. The TRDRP
program funds research on the following priority areas:
· Advance policies to reduce environmental exposure to the toxic effects of tobacco smoke, tobacco smoke residue, cigarette butts, and other tobacco products. Exposure and toxicity of cigarette butt waste or Biomarkers of THS exposure
· Advance innovative research in the early diagnosis of tobacco-related diseases, e.g., the role of inflammation and oxidative stress in tobacco-related disease pathogenesis or culturally sensitive health communications on discussing detection and lung cancer
·
Expand the scientific basis to inform the
regulation of nicotine and tobacco products at the local, state and national
level, e.g., the results of targeted marketing of
putative modified risk products, e.g., e-cigarettes, etc., or how
consumers may smoke de-nicotinized cigarettes differently
· Prevent and treat tobacco use and promote equity among disproportionately impacted groups. Studies on the basic neuroscience of nicotine addiction, e.g., targeted marketing aimed toward girls and young women or desensitization of nicotine’s effects on smokers by interrupting the causal chain in nicotine addiction thereby leading to more effective smoking cessation treatments
· Advance the ability of communities throughout California to assess and limit the influence of the tobacco industry, e.g., policy research that documents lives and money saved by tobacco control ordinances or the tobacco industry’s role in maintaining smoking in Indian Gaming Casinos

2020
Vision: Jane Silverthorne, NSF, Division of Integrative Organismal
Systems (11/2)
Several
distinguished speakers will be coming to UCR this year to give a talk aligned
with UCR’s strategic plan. This speaker series will be called “2020
Vision” because the talks will focus on the grand challenges for the next
decade.
Title: “Grand Challenges in Organismal Biology”
DATE: Friday, November 2nd, 2012
LOCATION: Genomics Auditorium, RM 1102A
TIME: 10:10 am
The
Division of Integrative Organismal Systems (IOS) supports research aimed at
understanding why organisms are structured the way they are and function as
they do. The research supported by IOS focused on organisms as a fundamental
unit of biological organization, using systems approaches that will lead to
conceptual and theoretical insights and predictions about emergent organismal
properties. Areas of inquiry include, but are not limited to,
developmental biology and the evolution of developmental processes, nervous
system development, structure, and function, physiological processes,
functional morphology, symbioses, interactions of organisms with biotic and
abiotic environments, plant genomics, and animal behavior.
Organismal
biology is undergoing a transformation brought about by new research resources,
technologies and computational tools. Long-standing questions about the
evolution and development of organisms and the bases for emergent properties
are receiving renewed attention as the grand challenges in organismal biology
are defined and tackled by a diverse research community. In this talk, I will
discuss community efforts to define the grand challenges in organismal biology
and some of the resulting opportunities for discovery, learning, broadening
participation, and engaging the broader public.
Dr.
Silverthorne received her B.Sc. degree in Biology from the University of
Sussex, Brighton, England and the Ph.D. degree in Biochemistry from the
University of Warwick. Her research training is in the area of plant
biology and her research has focused on the role of the phytochrome system in
regulating plant growth and development. Dr. Silverthorne came to the National
Science Foundation in 1999 as a Program Director from the University of
California, Santa Cruz, where she served as Professor of Molecular, Cellular
and Developmental Biology. She subsequently accepted a permanent Program
Director position in 2003 and served as a Cluster leader responsible for the
management of the Plant Genome Program in the Division of Biological
Infrastructure (DBI). Between November 2006 and March 2008, Dr. Silverthorne
was on detail at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy as a
Senior Policy Analyst in the Life Sciences. In November 2007, Dr.
Silverthorne was appointed Acting Deputy Director for DBI, and she became
Deputy Director in December 2008. In June 2009, she moved to the
Division of Integrative Organismal Systems where she currently serves as the
Division Director.
