Chemistry of Life Processes: The Chemistry of Life Processes program deals with the investigation of novel chemistry in biological systems and the advancement of basic chemical research and transformative technologies through creative applications that address important aspects of life processes. Research of interest to the program includes fundamental chemistry-centered projects at the interface with biology. The program also welcomes projects that integrate experimental and theoretical approaches, as well as inter- and multi-disciplinary research efforts at the chemistry-biology interface. Some examples include but are not limited to: synthetic methods for site-specific modifications of macromolecules; the application of advanced spectroscopic techniques to study energy transformations in biological systems; metal speciation, coordination and function; chemical ("bottom-up") synthetic biology; chemical basis of ligand-macromolecule recognition; studies of enzyme and ribozyme catalysis that focus on the chemistry; and the design and synthesis of riboswitches and small molecules that modulate biological systems. The program also encourages research projects that exploit biological systems to advance fundamental and enabling aspects of chemistry. Proposals that are compatible with the program are those that advance the knowledge and practice of chemistry. Proposals that focus mainly on addressing a biological question are more appropriate for the Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences (MCB). Proposals that address biomedical problems may be more appropriate for the National Institutes of Health.
