From the SOCIETY FOR THE STUDY OF EVOLUTION

The NSF BIO directorate will decide immediately (possibly Tuesday 9/25) whether to modify aspects of the current preproposal submission process. Two issues have risen as common concerns across the community and may be considered: The limited number of preproposal submission periods per year (currently 1x/year). The limited number of preproposals that a single PI may submit simultaneously (currently 2 at the 1x/year submission).

If you have an opinion on the current preproposal process, now is the time for your voice to be heard. The most effective message is likely to be a succinct email expressing your prioritized support for changing one of the two points above sent to: BIO Assistant Director - John Wingfield - <mailto:[email protected]>[email protected] BIO Deputy Assistant Director - Joan Roskoski ­ <mailto:[email protected]>[email protected]
