Welcome
to the Center for Dark Energy Biosphere Investigations
(C-DEBI), a National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded
Science and Technology Center on the deep subseafloor
biosphere. Our mission is to explore life beneath
the seafloor and make transformative discoveries that
advance science, benefit society, and inspire people
of all ages and origins. We are a multi-institutional
distributed center establishing the intellectual, educational,
technological, cyber-infrastructural and collaborative
framework needed for transformative experimental and
exploratory research on the subseafloor biosphere. Connect
with us via our mailing
list, on Facebook
and on our discussion
forum!
C-DEBI invites proposals for one-year biomolecular projects that will significantly advance understanding in one or more of the central research themes of C-DEBI. C-DEBI intends to fund 2-3 proposals in response to this call, at levels of $100,000-$150,000.

We look forward to your proposals!
