Multidisciplinary Opportunities through Resource Enhancement (MORE) is an initiative of the American Chemical Society (ACS) to assist emerging or nucleating groups of individuals conducting chemistry-related, multidisciplinary science or engineering. Through MORE, ACS will make resources available – including but not limited to access to ACS technology tools and staff expertise – in order to advance the concept of “chemistry without borders.” That is, the ACS is interested in helping those working on chemistry-related topics in non-traditional chemistry areas. Many scientists who may not self-identify as chemists nonetheless rely on chemistry-based knowledge or tools to advance their multidisciplinary research. These scientists may call themselves biologists, physicists, engineers, materials researchers, or others working along one or more of chemistry’s multidisciplinary borders. Depending on a number of factors, these and other scientists may qualify for support from ACS through this program. Some Examples of Multidisciplinary Fields/Topics ACS Will Consider Supporting The following list of scientific fields provides examples of the kinds of areas ACS has in mind when it uses the phrase “chemistry-related, multidisciplinary science.” We can’t, nor have we tried to, list all the areas that would qualify for support under this program. If you work in a field that is not listed below, but feel it meets the spirit of the criteria for this Request for Proposal (RFP), you are urged to submit an application to receive support from ACS.
Potential Areas of Support The ACS is willing to conditionally offer support in the following areas (among others) to groups submitting successful applications:
Support Criteria In order to receive consideration for ACS support under MORE, an applicant must provide the following information:
Proposal Submission and ACS Contact Person In order to be considered for ACS support under this program, please complete the MORE application form and submit it no later than March 15, 2007. All contact with ACS regarding this RFP shall be initially directed to: Jill Treby
