Scientific Instrumentation for Sensing and Imaging (NSF X-Labs) is sponsored by National Science Foundation (NSF). This NSF X-Labs funding opportunity seeks proposals to build the next generation of scientific instruments, drawing on quantum sensing, artificial intelligence-driven computational imaging, and entirely new chemical modalities. It supports independent, milestone-driven research and development organizations.

NSF X-Labs (Specific topics: Scientific Instrumentation for Sensing and Imaging, Quantum Systems: Interconnects and Integrated Photonics) is sponsored by U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF). The NSF X-Labs initiative supports independent teams of researchers, engineers, and entrepreneurs to pursue milestone-based federal funding to solve specific scientific challenges. This includes building next-generation scientific instruments, drawing on quantum sensing and AI-driven computational imaging, and developing novel components to transfer quantum information and integrate heterogeneous quantum systems.
