The opportunity also describes a separate pilot emphasis area for enabling technologies, including next-generation instrumentation and novel experimental platforms. The principal investigator must be primarily employed by the proposing small business, have the legal right to work for the company in the United States, and meet the stated minimum effort commitment for the selected program phase. No degree is required for the PI. The listed closing date is March 4, 2027.
