What this call funds

The U.S. National Science Foundation Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (NSF MPS) supports foundational research through multiple programs in the chemical sciences.

Programs include:

  • Chemical Catalysis
  • Chemical Measurement and Imaging
  • Chemical Mechanism, Function, and Properties
  • Chemical Structure and Dynamics
  • Chemical Synthesis
  • Chemical Systems and Solutions
  • Chemical Theory, Models and Computational Methods
  • Chemistry of Life Processes
  • Macromolecular, Supramolecular, and Nanochemistry

NSF MPS is particularly interested in intellectually ambitious and potentially transformative foundational research. Proposals need not promise a near-term product, deployment, or commercial outcome, nor need they address later-stage development to be competitive.
