ARTS & HUMANITIES
37-3 Robert Penn Warren Center for
the Humanities - 2014/2015 William S.
Vaughn Visiting Fellowship
(Vanderbilt)
The Robert Penn Warren Center for the
Humanities will host a year-long interdisciplinary faculty seminar to explore
questions related to publicly engaged
scholarship and to examine what may
gained and what may be lost for scholars
and scholarship when we are asked to
make our work more accessible to a
broad general audience. How will the
future of scholarly research in the
humanities be impacted by this increasing emphasis on publicly engaged scholarship as well as by the turn to digital
humanities and other forms of new
media? How do we prepare ourselves
and our graduate students for this changing landscape? Publicly engaged scholarship involves partnerships between
faculty members at academic institutions and individuals or organizations in
the private and public sectors for the purpose of creating and distributing knowledge as well as promoting meaningful
shared discourse. (TGA 10/13)

37-7 Division of Integrative
Organismal Systems Core Programs
(NSF)
The Division of Integrative Organismal
Systems (IOS) supports research aimed at
understanding why organisms are structured the way they are and function as
they do. Proposals should focus on organisms as a fundamental unit of biological
organization. Principal Investigators (PIs)
are encouraged to apply systems
approaches that will lead to conceptual
and theoretical insights and predictions
about emergent organismal properties.
Areas of inquiry include, but are not limited to, developmental biology and the
evolution of developmental processes,
nervous system development, structure,
and function, physiological processes,
functional morphology, symbioses, interactions of organisms with biotic and abiotic environments, and animal behavior.
Proposals are welcomed in all areas of
science supported by the Division of Integrative Organismal Systems. All investigator-initiated proposals to the core
programs in the Division of Integrative
Organismal Systems must now be invited
based on merit review of preliminary proposals. There is a single submission deadline with a limit of 2 preliminary
proposals per investigator per year as PI
or Co-PI in response to this solicitation.
