Some NSF programs have instituted special Small Grant for Exploratory Research (SGER) competitions, such as: Human and Social Dynamics (http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf05049) PIs should consult the hurricane Katrina page on the NSF website for a listing of Katrina-related funding opportunities at: http://www.nsf.gov/news/news_summ.jsp?cntn_id=104425 Otherwise, regular NSF policies and procedures for preparation and submission of a SGER proposal apply and may be found in the NSF Grant Proposal Guide at: http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/gpg/nsf04_23/2.jsp#IID1. SGER proposals are for small-scale, exploratory, high-risk research in the fields of science, engineering and education normally supported by NSF may be submitted to individual programs.
