The MacroSystems Biology and NEON-Enabled Science (MSB-NES) program of the National Science Foundation will host an open-forum webinar with Program Directors this February 6, 2019, 2:00 – 3:00 pm EST. Instructions for joining the session can be found here.* The webinar will be recorded, and a public link will appear at this location.

The program solicitation (NSF 19-538) invites innovative proposals to detect, quantify, and forecast the consequences of changing climate, land-use, and invasive species for the biosphere at regional to continental scales (see DEBrief). The Macrosystems Biology program also invites proposals for Research Coordination Networks for driving convergent science with the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) (NSF 19-031). Proposals share the due date of February 25, 2019.

Please note: The due date for this solicitation was not impacted by the recent federal lapse in appropriations, and it is not expected to change if another lapse follows the end of the continuing resolution on February 15 2019. Fastlane, Grants.gov, and Research.gov are expected to be functional and open for proposal submission. Find more information here.
