Designing Synthetic Cells Beyond the Bounds of Evolution (Designer Cells)

Full Proposal Deadline Date: February 1, 2023 after which proposals should be submitted to the Systems and Synthetic Biology cluster. Program Guidelines: NSF 21-531Because of recent technological advances in synthetic biology and bioengineering, researchers are now able to tailor cells and cell-like systems for a variety of basic and applied research purposes. The goal of this solicitation is to support research that (1) develops cell-like systems to identify the minimal requirements for the processes of life, (2) designs synthetically-modified cells to address fundamental questions in the evolution of life or to explore biological diversity beyond ...More at https://beta.nsf.gov/programid/505851This is an NSF Upcoming Due Dates item.
