About the National Science Foundation NSF is an independent federal agency created by the National Science Foundation Act of 1950, as amended. Its aim is to promote and advance progress in science and engineering research and education in the United States. The idea of such a foundation was an outgrowth of the important con- tributions made by science and technology during World War II. Among federal agencies that provide NSF funds research and education in science funds for basic research, only NSF is responsible and engineering through grants, contracts, and for strengthening the overall health of U.S. science cooperative agreements to about 1.600 colleges. and engineering across all fields. In contrast, other universities, K-12 schools, academic consortia, agencies support inquiry focused on a specific nonprofit institutions, small businesses, and other mission such as defense or energy.

National Science Foundation-funded research gave us smartphones, Google, & tools that detect cancer. Now, as the agency turns 75, it's facing devastating cuts. Science fuels innovation & our economy. Let’s not cut the engine. #SaveNSF #NSFfunded #NSF75
“The National Science Foundation is an extraordinary funding agency in that it funds basic research.” - @sudipsparikh. On Saturday, @NSF celebrated 75 years. NSF is crucial to America’s ability to compete on the global stage and has driven discovery for decades.

@sandiegostate.bsky.social research projects funded by the National Science Foundation benefit everyone: students, wildlife, businesses, and communities.
For 75 years, NSF funding has helped researchers imagine new possibilities.
We hope it continues for many more years to come.

🧊 #URIGSO professors Mingxi Zhou & Chris Roman are developing an #NSFfunded, multi-platform robotic system to accurately map drifting icebergs and measure surrounding water properties. The goal is to mitigate risks from icebergs & predict environmental changes like sea level rise. #NSF75
For 75 years, members of the scientific community have been able to count on the National Science Foundation for apolitical support. NSF funding allowed me to DO WHAT I DO. The recent cancellation of thousands of grants is a wake up call. We need NSF now more than ever! #NSF75, #SaveNSF
