About this opportunity
Synopsis NSF BIO invites research addressing fundamental questions about genetics, epigenetics, and gene expression mechanisms in diverse organisms. Cross-disciplinary and collaborative research is encouraged, especially employing perspectives and approaches from computational, mathematical, chemical, and physical sciences and engineering. Creative tool or methods development for quantitative and predictive understanding of new or long-standing questions about genetic mechanisms, is welcome. Primarily descriptive projects are given lower priority. Broad areas of focus include, but are not limited to: Spatiotemporal organization, coordination and/or regulation of processes that maintain, replicate, transcribe and translate the genome Mechanisms relating genomic or epigenomic determinants to...
