Advanced Physics Instrumentation (API) | NSF - U.S. National Science Foundation Advanced Physics Instrumentation (API) Important information for proposers and award recipients All proposals must be submitted in accordance with the requirements specified in the funding opportunity and in the Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) and its supplements .
All NSF grants and cooperative agreements are subject to the applicable set of NSF award terms and conditions . NSF has updated its research security policies for NSF funded projects. Supports the acquisition, development and implementation of the advanced instrumentation needed for NSF MPS physics research programs.
Supports the acquisition, development and implementation of the advanced instrumentation needed for NSF MPS physics research programs. The Advanced Physics Instrumentation program supports instrumentation that enables academic physics research groups in the U.S. to remain competitive in the rapidly changing global scientific environment.
MPS Physics accepts proposals to support such instrumentation because the costs are often significantly higher than what research awards to individual investigators can typically provide. Principal investigators (PIs) cannot apply directly to the Advanced Physics Instrumentation program.
PIs that require specialized equipment should request funding for that equipment as part of a regular proposal to the relevant MPS Physics core research program . The proposal will be reviewed and prioritized by that program as part of NSF's standard merit review process.
For proposals involving the development or implementation of complex instrumentation (typically at or above $1 million), reviewers will assess the applicant's ability to successfully deliver the instrumentation within the proposed budget and timeframe, and through its lifecycle.
Applicants are strongly encouraged to describe all foreseeable costs in their proposed budgets, including adequate plans for risk mitigation and project management. Proposed projects may be evaluated through additional technical, cost, schedule or management reviews. Applicants should upload project management documentation as a supplementary document, if applicable.
PIs should contact the relevant program prior to submission of any proposal that includes a request for advanced instrumentation resources. Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (MPS)

MGPV Travel Grant is sponsored by Geological Society of America (GSA), Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology, Volcanology Division. MGPV Travel grants support student travel to the annual GSA meeting. Applications are restricted to active graduate or undergraduate students who are the presenting authors of an accepted abstract at the annual GSA meeting.
Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Science (ROSES) - 2025: A.4 Rapid Response and Novel Research in Earth Science is sponsored by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (SMD). This omnibus research funding opportunity includes various program elements, with rolling submissions for Earth Science research through August 2026. Proposers to Earth Science using the NASA Center for Climate Simulation high-end computing facility must include specific budget details.
NSF 26-523 folds 12 core physics programs and three cross-cutting ones into a single solicitation with $180 million and roughly 300 awards. Proposals are accepted anytime, but AMO-Experiment and Gravitational Physics still target November 25 and QIS targets December 8. Cost sharing is prohibited, indirect cost rates are now a tiebreaker, and NSF reserves the right to phase out long-duration efforts after comparative review.
Read articleNSF 26-521 folds eight materials programs into one solicitation carrying $100 million and 200 to 300 awards. Proposals are accepted anytime — but no individual may appear as PI or co-PI on more than one proposal per fiscal year across all eight programs. That single sentence reshapes how materials labs collaborate.
Read articleNSF 26-520 consolidates 14 mathematical sciences programs into $200 million and 400 to 600 awards with no per-PI cap and no deadline. Folded into it are Research Training Groups and Focused Research Groups — department-scale, cohort-building competitions that ran on a fixed annual date. Here is why removing that date is a different kind of change for training grants than for single-investigator grants, and what math departments should do before the fall.
