Chemical Bonding Centers Phase II (CBC-II): The Chemical Bonding Centers (CBC) Program is designed to support the formation of centers that can address major, long-term basic chemical research problems. Appropriate research problems are high-risk but potentially high-impact because they will attract broad scientific and public interest. Centers are expected to be agile structures that can respond rapidly to emerging opportunities and make full use of cyberinfrastructure to enhance collaborations. Center teams may include researchers from other disciplines and from academia, industry, government laboratories and international organizations. CBCs are expected to integrate research, education, diversity, and outreach. Proposals should contain a compelling strategy for achieving demonstrable impact in all of these areas. The CBC program is a two-phase program. In the first phase, Massachusetts General Hospital, the University of California at Santa Barbara, and the University of Washington were lead institutions funded by NSF in FY 2004 to explore the development of CBCs. The second phase is to provide funding for implementation of full-scale centers in FY 2007. Only these development teams are eligible to participate in Phase II of the competition by submitting a proposal for the establishment of a full CBC.

Applicants Eligible for this Grant: Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: The eligible institutions are those funded in the CBC Phase I program under proposals submitted by Massachusetts General Hospital, the University of California at Santa Barbara, and the University of Washington. An investigator may participate (as a PI, co-PI or senior personnel) in only one CBC proposal submitted to this competition. The PI must be affiliated with a U.S. academic institution or non-profit research organization. Other investigators may be affiliated with U.S. academic institutions, non-profit research organizations, industry, government laboratories and international organizations. Unaffiliated scientists may also be eligible for support under a proposal submitted by an eligible organization. CBC award funds may not go directly to industry, government laboratories or international organizations. The PI listed on the cover sheet must be affiliated with the proposing institution. While these proposals will reflect the research of many investigators, only the name of the PI, and no names of Co-PIs, should appear on the cover sheet. Only one proposal may be submitted per eligible institution.
