In progress
Any project, supported or not by a committee, that is currently being worked on or is considered active, and will have an end date.
An ad hoc committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will conduct a consensus study to identify important themes and theory for biological research connecting micro to macro scales and describe how such research would most effectively be structured. This study will explore pathways to realizing the promise of continental-scale biology, building on NSF initiatives, including Reintegrating Biology, Rules of Life, and Biological Integration Institutes, and on the 2009 NRC report A New Biology for the 21st Century. The study combines the reintegration of biology with a vision for biology conducted at continental scales.
