Synopsis
The Division of
Integrative Organismal Systems (IOS) supports research aimed at understanding why
organisms are structured the way they are and function as they
do. Proposals should focus on organisms as a fundamental unit of
biological organization. PIs are encouraged to apply systems approaches that
will lead to conceptual and theoretical insights and predictions about emergent
organismal properties. Areas of inquiry include, but are not limited to,
developmental biology and the evolution of developmental processes, nervous
system development, structure, and function, physiological processes, functional
morphology, symbioses, interactions of organisms with biotic and abiotic
environments, and animal behavior.
Proposals are
welcomed in all areas of science supported by the Division of Integrative
Organismal Systems. However, effective July 13, 2011, all
investigator-initiated proposals to the core programs in the Division of
Integrative Organismal Systems will be invited/not invited via preliminary
proposals. There will be a single window of submission limit of 2 preliminary
proposals per investigator per year as PI/Co-PI/Lead Senior Investigator of a subaward in response to this Solicitation. Unsolicited
full research proposals will no longer be accepted into the IOS Core Programs.
This limit does not include proposals submitted in response to other NSF
Solicitations.
