Domestic Nuclear Detection Office/National Science Foundation Academic Research Initiative (ARI)
In FY 2007, the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office (DNDO) within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will invest, in partnership with the National Science Foundation (NSF), in leading edge, frontier research at academic institutions. This transformational research effort will be focused on detection systems, individual sensors or other research that is potentially relevant to the detection of nuclear weapons, special nuclear material, radiation dispersal devices and related threats. Research that would benefit from incorporation of social and behavioral science components is appropriate for consideration. The joint DNDO/NSF effort, in coordination with the efforts of other agencies, seeks to advance fundamental knowledge (more)...
Fiscal Year 2006 National Research Initiative (NRI) Competitive Grants Program
Fiscal Year 2006 National Research Initiative (NRI) Competitive Grants Program
The purpose of the NRI Program is to support research, extension, and
education grants that address key problems of national, regional, and
multistate importance in sustaining all components of agriculture
(farming, ranching, forestry including urban and agroforestry,
aquaculture, rural communities, human nutrition, processing, etc.).
Providing this support requires that NRI advance fundamental sciences
in support of agriculture and coordinate opportunities to build on
these discoveries. Building on these discoveries will necessitate new
efforts in education and extension that deliver science-based knowledge
to people, allowing them to make informed practical decisions. In FY
2006, the NRI Program will accept applications for fundamental
research, mission-linked research, and integrated research, extension,
and education projects. Application (more)...
