Topical Funding Opportunity Awards

Lists below represent recommendations, at time of posting, for awards selected using competitive peer review under topical Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs) sponsored by the Office of Science (SC). Topical FOAs are an important element of the overall research portfolio that SC supports. The lists provide the most recent topical FOA awards that have been selected by SC.

The Portfolio Analysis And Management System (PAMS) Award Search provides public abstracts, specific funding amounts, and more information once an award has been made. The PAMS Award Search also includes information about awards made prior to 2022 from topical FOAs as well as awards from the annually-issued “Continuation of Solicitation for the Office of Science Financial Assistance Program.”

The FOA is issued by the FES General Plasma Science (GPS) program to seek new applications from U.S. researchers to carry out frontier-level plasma science research on one or more of the FES GPS Program supported collaborative research facilities (CRFs). The focus here is on new, one-time, short-term, small “seed” funding for external collaborations with the CRFs and to increase participation at and productivity of these facilities. Through the support of this research, the FES GPS Program plays ...

Nuclear Data Evaluators are subject matter experts that assess new and old experimental data, theory, and computational methods to determine the best accepted values for properties of nuclear structure and reactions. Due to retirements and increasing demand in nuclear data, there is a need to increase the evaluator workforce. Awards under this FOA will train four new evaluators to bolster the workforce, and include a summer school for in-depth training in specialized topics among the cohort of t ...
