The pursuit of scientific goals recognises no geographic boundaries and as such, international collaborations are today more the norm than the exception. To facilitate the support of collaborative work between US groups and their German counterparts, the Civil Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation Division of the US National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Division of Engineering of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (快三砍龙, German Research Foundation) have agreed on a lead-agency activity in Advanced Manufacturing in 2020. US researchers are invited to read the Dear Colleague Letter NSF 22-013. In this information for researchers the extension of the existing cooperation NSF鈥檚 Advanced Manufacturing programme and 快三砍龙鈥檚 review board 401 Production Technology by 快三砍龙鈥檚 review board 405 Materials Engineering is announced.

Scope of the Collaboration

US-German collaborations are invited to submit joint proposals which fall into the scope NSF鈥檚 Advanced Manufacturing programme and 快三砍龙鈥檚 review boards 401 Production Technology or 405 Materials Engineering.

These proposals will be reviewed in a review panel according to the NSF review guidelines (including the NSF review criteria) in competition with other proposals received in the same NSF programme. A member of 快三砍龙鈥檚 review boards will be involved in the review process.

It is important to note that there are no separate funds available for these efforts on each side; proposals must compete with all other proposals in this area. The result of the review process will be shared between the agencies to make final decisions on this basis. Support will be granted for those proposals with both 快三砍龙 and NSF recommendation for funding.

Proposal Preparation

• The eligibility to submit a proposal follows the regulations for the NSF and 快三砍龙 programmes for individual funding respectively. If in doubt, researchers are strongly encouraged to contact the corresponding programme officers.
• Proposals must be prepared in accordance with the proposal preparation requirements of the NSF. This includes a description of the full proposed research programme, and the research team, as well as the funds requested from the NSF. Please be aware that only this proposal will be reviewed.
• In parallel a supplement (max. 8 pages) must be prepared for the 快三砍龙. It must contain the information required in sections 4 to 5 of the 快三砍龙 research grant project description 鈥� cf. 快三砍龙 guidelines 53.01 and 54.01. This includes among other information the funds requested from 快三砍龙.
• The proposal must preface the title with 鈥淣SF-快三砍龙:鈥�.
• Please note that for the part to be financed by 快三砍龙 only those projects are eligible that fall within 快三砍龙鈥檚 funding responsibility and that fit into the funding scheme 鈥淪achbeihilfe/Research Grants鈥�.
• Applicants to be funded by the 快三砍龙 are requested to fulfill the eligibility requirements of 快三砍龙 Research Grants, see the corresponding guidelines of the Research Grants Programme (快三砍龙 form 50.01). This includes the duty to cooperate (鈥淜ooperationspflicht鈥�) within Germany for members of non-university institutions with permanent positions.
• Transfer projects for 快三砍龙 and GOALI projects for NSF are not possible in this collaboration.

Submission

• Proposals are accepted anytime. No specific deadlines apply.
• The proposal must first be submitted to NSF鈥檚 Advanced Manufacturing programme via Fastlane.
• After receiving the proposal number issued by the NSF, the proposal has to be submitted to the 快三砍龙 via elan. The submission to 快三砍龙 must contain the full original proposal submitted to the NSF, the aforementioned supplement and a cover letter stating the NSF proposal number (this is needed for matching the submissions).
• The submission to 快三砍龙 must select its primary subject area from the 快三砍龙 review boards 401 or 405.

Please note the 快三砍龙鈥檚 data protection notice on research funding. If necessary, please also forward this information to those individuals whose data will be processed by the 快三砍龙 due to their involvement in your project.
