The National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) wish to notify the research community of a joint NSF and National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) research program called the Science of Science Approach to Analyzing and Innovating the Biomedical Research Enterprise (SoS:BIO). This DCL encourages proposals that broaden participation from diverse talent pools to advance the science of science on biomedical sciences.

SoS:BIO encourages proposals that will advance understanding of the biomedical research enterprise by drawing from the expertise of the Science of Science research community. Research can draw from a variety of social science disciplines and use a breadth of methodologies and theories to address important Science of Science research questions relevant to biomedical research – from discovery to impact. The SoS:BIO program will also consider proposals designed to create and provide access to datasets on important Science of Science topics that will enable research questions to be answered.

Proposals should be submitted to NSF Program Solicitation NSF 23-569. The next target dates for full proposals are 5 p.m. submitter’s local time on September 9, 2024 and February 10, 2025.

The annual target dates thereafter will be September 9 and February 9. Proposals must be prepared and submitted in accordance with guidelines contained in the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) and the relevant program solicitation.
