Overview

The U.S. National Science Foundation Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (NSF MPS) supports foundational research through multiple programs in the chemical sciences.

Programs include:

Chemical Catalysis

Chemical Measurement and Imaging

Chemical Mechanism, Function, and Properties

Chemical Structure and Dynamics

Chemical Synthesis

Chemical Systems and Solutions

Chemical Theory, Models and Computational Methods

Chemistry of Life Processes

Macromolecular, Supramolecular, and Nanochemistry

NSF MPS is particularly interested in intellectually ambitious and potentially transformative foundational research. Proposals need not promise a near-term product, deployment, or commercial outcome, nor need they address later-stage development to be competitive.
