Three years ago, NSF announced Ten Big Ideas for Future Investments. From Harnessing the Data Revolution, to defining the Future of Work at the Human-Technology Frontier, and Understanding the Rules of Life, all of the Big Ideas require cross-disciplinary, convergent research to make significant progress on these important societal challenges. The talk will present an overview of these ideas and describe some of the funding opportunities. There will also be a summary of the activities of the Engineering Directorate, highlights of new cross-cutting programs at NSF, and time for Q&A.
