The last year-and-a-half has shown NSF’s Directorate for Biological
Sciences (BIO) the need for ongoing and new efforts to broaden
participation and enhance diversity in the biological sciences given the
disproportionate impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on individuals in
historically under-represented groups, those at historically under-served
institutions, and on those institutions themselves. Of course, these issues
did not arise during the pandemic. They are historic and COVID-19 has only
heightened them.

To achieve greater diversity across the biological workforce, BIO has
released two new solicitations, highlighted below.

*Details of these funding opportunities will be featured in the upcoming
VOH on November 18, at 1pm ET. Register for that session **here*
<https://nsf.zoomgov.com/webinar/register/WN_QJdSn2DFQUOpIFOu_oW-Cg>*.*

Building Research Capacity of New Faculty in Biology (BRC-BIO)
<https://beta.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/building-research-capacity-new-faculty-biology-brc-bio?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery>

   - Awards will provide the means for new faculty (i.e., those at the
   Assistant Professor rank (or equivalent) with service at that rank for no
   more than 3 years by the proposal submission date) -- primarily at MSIs,
   PUIs, and other universities and colleges that are not among the nation's
   most research-intensive institutions -- to initiate and build independent
   research programs by enhancing their research capacity. These projects
   might also include biology-focused research collaborations among faculty
   within the same institution, across peer-, or research-intensive
   institutions, or partnerships with industry or other non-academic partners
   that advance the candidate’s research program.
   - Full proposal windows: January 3-31, 2022 and June 1-30, 2022

Research and Mentoring for Postbaccalaureates in Biological Sciences (RaMP)
<https://beta.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/research-and-mentoring-postbaccalaureates-biological-sciences-ramp?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery>

   - Awards will establish networks to support full-time research,
   mentoring, and training for recent college graduates who have had few or no
   research or training opportunities during college in research fields
   typically supported by the Directorate of Biological Sciences.
   - Full proposal deadline: January 20, 2022

broadening participation, Program Directors from across the Directorate for
Biological Sciences will hold a Virtual Office Hour on November 18 at 1pm
ET.
