The NSF has invited proposals for the Emerging Frontiers in Research
and Innovation 2012(EFRI-2012) program to support interdisciplinary
teams of researchers to embark on rapidly advancing frontiers of
fundamental engineering research.

Proposals will be accepted in three research areas:

1) Flexible Bioelectronics Systems (BioFlex);
2) Origami Design for Integration of Self-assembling Systems for
Engineering Innovation (ODISSEI); and,
3) Photosynthetic Biorefineries (PSBR).

Approximately $31 million may be made available to support up to 15
awards. Eligibility is restricted to institutions of higher education.
Letters of intent are due Sep 30. More information regarding
NSF-11-571 is available at:http://www.nsf.gov/publications/
pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf11571.

What researchers and institutions are active in these areas? Does the
region have a chance to win one of these awards?
