NASA's Science Mission Directorate
NASA's Science Mission Directorate has a new website for research and analysis (R&A) news at http://www.science.hq.nasa.gov/research/sara.html. It contains information on the proposal and financial process improvements underway, a list of program officers with email and phone numbers, and statistics on programs. You can submit questions and complaints (and compliments) to SARA (the Senior Advisor for Research and Analysis) and you will get a reply. You can sign up to receive news on SMD's R&A programs at the website. This NSPIRES mailing list will only be used this once to announce the site; so please visit the site and sign up at to get future R&A updates. This NSPIRES mailing list will continue to be used for announcing SMD solicitations like ROSES and AOs.
