VIRTUAL PROPOSERS’ CONFERENCE FOR THE ROSES-2021 E.8 – PHYSICAL SCIENCES INFORMATICS PROGRAM ELEMENT
NASA will hold a virtual proposers’ conference to provide an overview of the “NASA Physical Sciences Informatics System” program element released on September 15, 2021, to give a tutorial of the Physical Sciences Informatics (PSI) system, and to answer questions about the proposal process and the use of the PSI.
Date: Wednesday, October 6, 2021, at 3 pm Eastern Time
WebEx Meeting Website: http://nasaenterprise.webex.com/
WebEx Meeting Number: 199 014 4488
WebEx Meeting Password: gSBF8URw*25
Join by phone: +1-929-251-9612 or +1-415-527-5035
If you want to submit questions about the PSI or the program element before the conference, please send your questions to msfc-dl-psi-support@mail.nasa.gov. During the conference, you may send questions to the Conference Host using Webex Chat (non-voice, similar to sending a text message). There also will be limited time reserved during the conference to ask questions over the Webex. The E.8 PSI program element is available at: https://nspires.nasaprs.com/external/solicitations/summary.do?solId={3B58C0CA-6FF7-C12A-B5F1-75920A1809B1}&path=&method=init. The full announcement of the release of the program element is included below.
Presentations made at the session, including answers to all submitted questions, will be posted on the FAQ section of the NSPIRES website within 10 business days of the conference. Additional questions and answers after the conference will be handled similarly. Anonymity of the authors of all questions will be preserved in the publicly posted documents.
For more details, visit the PSI website: https://nasa.gov/PSI, or the NSPIRES webpage for E.8 Physical Science Informatics.
ROSES-21 Amendment 36: E.8 Physical Sciences Informatics Final Text and Due Dates Released
The PSI system includes experimental data from the following research areas: 1) Biophysics, 2) Combustion Science, 3) Complex Fluids, 4) Fluid Physics, 5) Fundamental Physics, and 6) Materials Science. This E.8 Physical Sciences Informatics (PSI) program element solicits ground-based research in all these six research areas. The proposals must present a compelling case of how the experimental data from the PSI system (https://www.nasa.gov/PSI) will be used to promote the advancement of further research. Proposals must be responsive to the high-priority research areas identified in the 2011 Decadal Survey report “Recapturing a Future for Space Exploration: Life and Physical Sciences Research for a New Era“.
ROSES-2021 Amendment 36 releases final text and due dates for E.8 Physical Sciences Informatics (PSI), which was previously listed as “TBD” in Tables 2 and 3 of ROSES. Optional notices of intent to propose are requested by October 29, 2021, and the due date for proposals is January 10, 2022.
On or about September 15, 2021, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement “Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2021” (NNH21ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2021 and will appear on SARA’s ROSES blog at: https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/grant-solicitations/roses-2021/
Questions concerning E.8 PSI may be directed to Francis Chiaramonte at Francis.p.chiaramonte@nasa.gov and BPS-PhysicalSciences@nasaprs.com
