<p><strong>We expect to spend roughly $40M on this RFP over the next 5 months,</strong> and we have funding available to spend substantially more depending on the quality of applications received. We’re open to proposals for grants of many sizes and purposes,
ranging from rapid funding for API credits all the way to seed funding for new research organizations.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Whether you’re an expert on one of these research topics or you’ve barely thought about them, we encourage you to apply. Over the last few years, we’ve seen many researchers switch into safety research and produce impactful work, and we think there’s still
a lot of ground to cover.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><strong>Applications will be open until April 15, 2025.</strong> The first step is a 300-word expression of interest; we’ll aim to respond within two weeks to invite strong applicants to write a full proposal.
<strong>Applications will be evaluated on a rolling basis: the earlier you apply, the earlier we’ll get back to you.<o:p></o:p></strong></p>
