EMSL's 2014 Call for Proposals will be open December 20, 2013 - March 3, 2014 for high-impact user research proposals focused on selected topics in environmental molecular science. Approved proposals will be granted access to EMSL resources beginning October 1, 2014. Proposals submitted under this Call are valid for two years provided the annual summary and extension request demonstrate sufficient progress toward the stated goals. A select number of proposal authors may be invited to submit project plans to extend the work for a third year. Through the proposal and review process, EMSL allocates access to research instruments, staff, and facility services. Access to instruments is provided at no cost to users for research that is in the public domain and intended for publication in the open literature, but users are responsible for funding their own team's labor and travel expenses. Details related to focused topics under the Call will be available on EMSL's website on December 20 (http://www.emsl.pnl.gov/access/calls/).
