Biology provides a blueprint for translating atomic and nanoscale phenomena into mesoscale materials that display complex yet well-coordinated collective behavior.
The major programmatic direction is on the science-driven creation of resilient materials and multiscale systems that exhibit well-coordinated functionality and information content approaching that of biological materials but capable of functioning under harsher, non-biological environments.
This research activity seeks innovative fundamental science approaches for co-design and scalable synthesis of materials that coherently and actively manage multiple complex and simultaneous functions and tolerate abuse through autonomous repair and regrowth.
New synthetic approaches and unconventional assembly pathways are sought to accelerate discovery/design of materials that will provide the foundation for transformative impacts on carbon dioxide removal, advanced manufacturing, and energy transfer and storage.
An area of emphasis will be activities to understand and control assembly mechanisms to seamlessly integrate capabilities developed for one length scale across multiple length scales as the material is constructed.
Included is development of predictive models and AI/ML for data-driven science that accelerate materials discovery and support fundamental science to direct clean, energy efficient scalable synthesis with real-time adaptive control.
The program will not support projects that do not have a clear focus on fundamental materials science or are aimed at optimization of materials properties for any applications, device fabrication, sensor development, tissue engineering, understanding of underlying biological synthetic or assembly processes, biological research, or biomedical research.

The Trump administration committed $5B and 278 projects across 15+ agencies to the Genesis Mission. Here's the structure — and how to position for the next wave.
Read articleOn July 22, 2026, the White House announced more than $5 billion in federal commitments for the Genesis Mission — the Department of Energy-led national initiative to fuse AI, exascale computing, and the 17 national labs into a single scientific platform. Nearly 300 projects across all 50 states were selected from a historic Request for Applications, and 15-plus agencies are now attaching funding to a set of National Science and Technology Challenges. Here is what the Genesis Mission is, how the money is structured, and the concrete on-ramps for researchers, universities, and small businesses who were not in the first cohort.
Read articleDOE's FY2026 Office of Science open-call solicitation (DE-FOA-0003600) makes roughly $500 million available across about 500 awards of $50,000 to $5 million — across computing, physics, chemistry, biology, fusion, and isotopes — with a rolling window that stays open through September 30, 2026. Unlike a targeted NOFO, it lets investigators propose almost anything within the agency's mission. Here is how the open call actually works, why it is chronically underused, and how to write into it.
