The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been offering Precision Measurement Grants since 1970 to support research in fundamental measurement and the determination of fundamental constants. These grants are aimed at encouraging basic research in universities, colleges, and research labs, and they help build connections between NIST scientists and academic researchers. The grants provide up to $50,000 per year for one initial year, with the possibility of renewal for up to two more years, depending on performance and funding availability.
Researchers interested in applying must submit pre-applications electronically through Grants.gov by February 3, 2025. The program is designed to support innovative research in areas where other funding sources may be limited, helping to advance scientific understanding in measurement science.
