Joint DMS/NIGMS Initiative to Support Research at the Interface of the Biological and Mathematical Sciences
Funds the mathematics and statistics needed to answer biological and biomedical questions, up to $1.2 million. NSF and NIH pay jointly.
NSF's Division of Mathematical Sciences and the National Institute of General Medical Sciences at NIH run this together. What it funds is the mathematics and statistics itself — the fundamental work needed to answer questions in the biological and biomedical sciences, rather than the biology those methods are applied to.
Both agencies say the same thing about why: research at the interface betwee…
Fundamental mathematics and statistics developed to answer questions in the biological and biomedical sciences, in two tracks by budget and duration. New collaborations between mathematical and life scientists are an explicit aim alongside support for existing teams.
