CONTACTS
PROGRAM GUIDELINES
A revised version of the NSF Proposal & Award Policies &
Procedures Guide (PAPPG), NSF 09-1, was issued on October 1, 2008
and is effective for proposals submitted on or after January 5, 2009. Please be
advised that the guidelines contained in NSF 09-1 apply to proposals submitted
in response to this funding opportunity. Proposers who opt to submit
prior to January 5th, 2009, must also follow the guidelines
contained in NSF 09-1.
One of the most significant changes to the PAPPG is
implementation of the mentoring provisions of the America COMPETES Act.
Each proposal that requests funding to support postdoctoral researchers must
include, as a separate section within the 15-page project description, a
description of the mentoring activities that will be provided for such
individuals. Proposals that do not include a separate section on
mentoring activities within the Project Description will be returned without
review (see the PAPP Guide Part I: Grant Proposal Guide Chapter
II.C.2.d for further information).

SYNOPSIS
In partnership with academic institutions, botanical gardens, freshwater and marine institutes, and natural history museums, the National Science Foundation seeks to enhance taxonomic research and help prepare future generations of experts. Through this Special Biennial Competition in Systematic Biology, NSF will support competitively reviewed projects that target groups of poorly known organisms for modern monographic research. Projects must train new taxonomists (two per project minimally) and must translate current expertise into electronic databases and other products with broad accessibility to the scientific community.
