11 April | Dear Colleague Letter: Special Guidelines for Submitting Collaborative Proposals under U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Department of Biotechnology (DBT) of India Collaborative Research Opportunities

NSF

Proposals may be submitted that address complex scientific challenges and innovate novel solutions that leverage advances in synthetic and engineering biology, systems and computational biology, and other associated fields that are foundational to developing future biomanufacturing solutions and advance the bioeconomy. Examples of challenge areas include but are not limited to:

  • Development of innovative tools, technologies, and resources for genome engineering, and genome manipulations of plants and other organisms of relevance in synthetic and engineering biology
  • Designing organelles (ribosomes, mitochondria, membranes, regulatory modules, molecular machines, etc.), or synthetic components that could be integrated into cells or cell-like systems
  • Understanding the biological principles for cell programming and strain engineering in microbes and host (plant) microbe interactions in phytobiomes and rhizosphere
  • Engineering DNA, RNA, and protein/enzyme
  • Modelling of metabolic networks and interactions among networks
  • Designing host expression system for recombinant proteins
  • Engineering novel microbial chassis
  • Developing and applying synthetic gene circuits
  • Engineering novel plant chassis
  • Predictive models of cells and subcellular systems that support mechanistic understanding and engineering design
