§1862p–14. Broader Impacts Review Criterion (a) Goals The Foundation shall apply a broader impacts review criterion to identify and demonstrate project support of the following goals: (1) Increasing the economic competitiveness of the United States. (2) Advancing of the health and welfare of the American public. (3) Supporting the national defense of the United States. (4) Enhancing partnerships between academia and industry in the United States. (5) Developing an American STEM workforce that is globally competitive through improved pre-kindergarten through grade 12 STEM education and teacher development, and improved undergraduate STEM education and instruction. (6) Improving public scientific literacy and engagement with science and technology in the United States. (7) Expanding participation of women and individuals from underrepresented groups in STEM.
My brain cannot get passed how Congress is fully ceding its power by letting these #NSF terminations happen for competitively awarded training grants, claiming that they don't align with agency priorities, when this is the federal statute for Broader Impacts

@ucdavis.bsky.social Important and timely information for those preparing an NSF proposal. There have been some updates that are relevant for anyone currently developing their broader impacts section.

Research can improve sci teaching in rural areas. With #NSFFunding, we designed & tested the impact of an online course to help Ts better engage Ss & help Ss see themselves as doers of sci. We found big impacts on the quality of Ts assessments & teaching practices. Invest in Ss. Protect #NSFFunding.
And our first NSF CAREER Prep event is on the calendar! @ucdavis.bsky.social early career faculty, join us on Zoom, April 3 12-1 pm to learn more about this prestigious award and how to get started!

"If the attacks on our scientists and their institutions are allowed to continue, our envisioned future of longer, healthier lives will happen more slowly, in other countries, or not at all."

(Many of these researchers have their own #NIHFunding and #NSFFunding to support their work in areas ranging from drug discovery, addiction, materials science leading to new computing devices, medical devices, energy storage and production).
