BSF: Transformative Science Grants - Preliminary proposals

"Research driven by ideas that have potential to radically change our understanding of an important scientific concept, or lead to the creation of a new paradigm, or a new field of science. Such research is also characterized by its challenge to current understanding or by its pathways to new frontiers". Funding: $100,000/year for 3 years.. Applications will be processed using a two tier submission process, starting with a short pre-proposal, followed by full proposals of selected applications. Up to 2 grants will be approved each year. All areas of research supported by the BSF and any combination hereof between them will be eligible for submission each year. BSF allows Transformative Science grantees to hold also a regular BSF grant, and current grantees or applicants in the regular program can submit to this program as well. Applicants will not be allowed to submit a pre-proposal to the program in consecutive years.
