The DOE Office of Science (SC) invites applications for support under the Early Career Research Program in the following program areas: Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR); Basic Energy Sciences (BES); Biological and Environmental Research (BER); Fusion Energy Sciences (FES); High Energy Physics (HEP); Nuclear Physics (NP); Isotope R&D and Production (DOE IP); or Accelerator R&D and Production (ARDAP). The purpose of this program is to support the development of individual research programs of outstanding scientists early in their careers and to stimulate research careers in the areas supported by SC.
The PI must be an untenured Assistant Professor or Associate Professor on the tenure track at a U.S. academic institution as of the deadline for the application. For the present competition, those who received doctorates no earlier than 2010 are eligible. If a PI has multiple doctorates, the discipline of the one they have earned within the 10-year eligibility window should be relevant to the proposed research. Extensions to eligibility will be considered for individuals who have had a major life event requiring an extended absence (3 months or longer) from the workplace.
Recent recipients include Jarad Mason (CCB, 2020), Cora Dvorkin (Physics, 2019), Stratos Idreos (SEAS, 2019), and Kang-Kuen Ni (CCB, 2018).
