4 Synthetic Biology NSF Funding NSF investments in Synthetic Biology have been predominantly driven through unsolicited proposals by the research community SynBERC Largest investment by NSF established in 2006 EFRI IDEAS lab Joint NSF/EPSRC Sandpit on Synthetic Biology CBET/BBBE Unsolicited proposals MCB/Systems and Synthetic Biol. Cluster Unsolicited proposals SBIR/STTR Unsolicited proposals INSPIRE SAVI Science Across Virtual Institutes Yeast Chromosome Synthesis and Analysis; partnership between US China Europe and India

5 Challenges Agency Sees for the Focus Areas It Supports NSF mission is to advance science and ensure education and training of workforce translate advances in science to ensure national prosperity (i.e.job creation) Advance of science: $$$$$$ Development of fundamental technologies Research infrastructure (repositories data storage who funds it what are the standards) International collaboration/competition Concentration of resources vs democratization of science Development in organisms other than E. coli How do you proceed safely ethically with public trust (perceived versus actual risk) Education Discipline specific versus interdisciplinary training Curriculum resources Translation to Industry Job creation Robustness of systems Economics uncertain IP regulatory landscape

6 Issues for the forum to explore Coordination of funding/collaboration to better leverage resources between agencies Address perceived versus actual risk of technology Is there a need for standard development for the purpose of developing respositories for data How will we fund national/international research infrastructure that benefits all
