Posted by U.S. National Science Foundation

Opportunity snapshot. This Grants.gov announcement — Biomechanics and Mechanobiology — is cataloged under number PD-12-7479 and tied to CFDA assistance listing 47.041, posted by U.S. National Science Foundation. Grants.gov currently shows the opportunity as open, first posted on December 9, 2011 and last updated on September 19, 2013. The funding category is Discretionary, delivered as a grant.

Award economics. The award range on file is $5,000 -- $400,000. Cost sharing is not required, so applicants do not need to commit matching funds to be competitive on this opportunity. Federal award ranges are often upper bounds; actual allocations reflect program appropriations, the strength of the applicant pool, and the evaluation committee's scoring.

Deadline and action path. This opportunity is open, but Grants.gov has not published a hard closing date — check the official listing for the current deadline and any posted amendments. Every Grants.gov submission requires an active SAM.gov registration and a Unique Entity ID. Review the Eligibility section below carefully — federal eligibility categories (nonprofit, state or local government, tribal, individual, educational institution, small business) have distinct registration and reporting requirements. Pre-application outreach to the listed agency contact is permitted and often welcomed — it helps clarify scope and scoring priorities.

Description

The BMMB Program supports fundamental research in biomechanics and mechanobiology. An emphasis is placed on multiscale mechanics approaches in the study of organisms that integrate across molecular, cell, tissue, and organ domains. The relationships between mechanical behavior and extracellular matrix composition and organization are of interest. In addition, the influence of in vivo mechanical forces on cell and matrix biology in the histomorphogenesis, maintenance, regeneration, and aging of tissues is an important concern. Funded projects may include theoretical, computational, and experimental approaches. The program encourages the consideration of diverse living tissues as smart materials that are self-designing.
