The Pathways to Enable Secure Open-Source Ecosystems (PESOSE) program supports the translation of open-source science and engineering-focused research products into safe and sustainable ecosystems that address national and societal challenges. Open-source tools such as software, hardware, machine learning models, languages, and data platforms are designed to be shared as they are publicly-accessible and modifiable. These tools spark innovation in critical fields as varied as artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing, banking, healthcare, research, education, next-gen manufacturing, mobility, and National security (including cybersecurity).

These products are freely available for anyone to view, use, modify, or share. Open-source products encourage collaboration, transparency, and community-driven development, which helps speed up innovation. Over time, many of these products become part of [...] national infrastructure, including energy grids, water systems, [...] records, financial networks, and [...] The economic value of open-source products is enormous, with recent estimates exceeding $13 trillion per year. Open-source software is used almost everywhere and supports key technologies such as artificial intelligence, data science, cloud computing, telecommunications, scientific research tools, and critical facilities. Despite these benefits, the number of open-source developers is relatively small, and many projects lack sufficient resources. This can slow innovation and make maintenance difficult. In addition, weaknesses in open-source software - such as security flaws, supply-chain risks, or insider threats - can spread across many connected systems. In extreme cases, these weaknesses could lead to large-scale failures that affect national or global systems. [...] The PESOSE program supports NSF's mission by accelerating innovation that benefits the Nation. Funded projects lower barriers for researchers and startups, protect public and private investments, strengthen safety, security, and privacy, and support interoperability and standards. Together, these outcomes help increase U.S. competitiveness in the global economy. [...] The Pathways to Enable Secure Open-Source Ecosystems (PESOSE) program, managed by the Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships, creates a new pathway to turn research into innovation by supporting strong, sustainable, and secure open-source ecosystems (OSEs). These ecosystems are built around existing open-source products, tools, and artifacts that already show promise. The goal is to transform research results into widely used technologies and services that benefit society. Open-source ecosystems depend on distributed development, where contributors from many organizations work together to improve and maintain the product. When successful, these ecosystems grow active communities of developers and users, attract resources, and help innovations make a lasting impact. [...] Track 1: Scoping and planning. This track helps organizations that need experience building developer and user communities. This includes planning and training in governance, legal issues, licensing, fundraising, and administration.

The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation is inviting pre-applications for the 2026 Experimental Investigators competition as part of its Emergent Phenomena in Quantum Systems (EPiQS) Initiative. Through EPiQS, the foundation seeks to accelerate breakthroughs in quantum materials—solids and engineered structures that exhibit novel quantum phases and emergent electronic behavior. [...] Investigator awards are a central pillar of EPiQS. These awards provide exceptionally creative scientists with substantial, long-term, and flexible support, enabling them to pursue ambitious research agendas of their own design. By fostering intellectual freedom and risk-taking, the EPiQS Investigators program aims to drive transformative advances and expand the frontiers of quantum materials research. EPIQS will conduct open calls for Investigators and Moore Synthesis Fellows in 2026, 2029, and 2032. [...] The EPiQS Experimental Investigator awards support U.S. experts in experimental studies of quantum materials to pursue discovery of new emergent electronic and magnetic phenomena in solids, elucidate the origin of previously known emergent phenomena, develop new experimental techniques for probing or controlling quantum materials, or substantially enhance the performance of existing techniques. This call for proposals will result in the appointment of up to eight Experimental Investigators. The awards will provide six years of unconstrained funding, offering recipients full autonomy to define their research directions and allocate their budgets. The award amount will be in the range $1,800,000–$2,000,000. [...] 2026, [...] the EPi [...] be adjusted based on [...] remaining balance of [...] In the pre-application stage, applicants will provide basic personal and employment information, a curriculum vitae, and a brief research statement. Pre-applications will be internally screened for eligibility and programmatic fit, and, with possible input from external experts, a subset of about 60 highly competitive applicants will be identified. These applicants will then be invited to submit full proposals, including an expanded research statement and additional information. Due to the expected high volume of pre-applications, feedback will not be provided to those not selected for the full-proposal stage. All applicants will receive notifications of their pre-application status. [...] Pre-applications are due by June 5, 2026, at 11:59pm Pacific Daylight Time. Applicants should enter the required information themselves; institutional involvement and budget submissions are not required at this stage. Eligible and highly competitive applicants will be invited to submit full proposals in late July. The proposals will undergo rigorous expert review by leading scientists in the field.
