Building Sustainable Software Tools for Open Science (R03 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Building Sustainable Software Tools for Open Science (R03 Clinical Trial Not Allowed) The purpose of this funding opportunity is to enhance the sustainability and impact of research software tools by enabling the use of best practices and design principles in software development and by leveraging continuing advances in computing. The Building Sustainable Software Tools for Open Science (R03) funding opportunity is intended to provide a flexible mechanism to support the use of best practices for scientific software development and to promote community engagement for open science.

Successful grants will enable and/or enhance biomedical, clinical, behavioral, social, and health-related research endeavors by (1) developing robust, sustainable, scalable, and reproducible research software tools and workflows, (2) extending the impact of research software by broader dissemination to the scientific community, (3) supporting collaborations between scientists and software engineers to leverage modern, best practices in research software development, and (4) enhancing software skills of the research workforce. This initiative is aligned with the NIH Strategic Plan for Data Science, which describes actions aimed at building a better data infrastructure and a modernized data ecosystem.
