The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency to promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defensewith an annual budget of about $5.5 billion, we are the funding source for approximately 20 percent of all federally supported basic research conducted by America’s colleges and universities. In many fields such as mathematics, computer science and the social sciences, NSF is the major source of federal backing.  We fulfill our mission chiefly by issuing limited-term grants to fund specific research proposals that have been judged the most promising by a rigorous and objective merit-review system. Most of these awards go to individuals or small groups of investigators. NSF′s goal is to support the people, ideas and tools that together make discovery possible. That′s why we say NSF is where discoveries begin. Many of the discoveries and technological advances have been truly revolutionary. In the past few decades, NSF-funded researchers have won more than 160 Nobel Prizes. NSF also funds equipment that is needed by scientists and engineers-- ... sensitive detectors of very subtle physical phenomena, and gravitational wave observatoriesNational Science Foundation Support

Flow Metrix, Inc. is the proud recipient of National Science Foundation (NSF) grant funds. This support is achieved based on our strong scientific and technological background; our innovative new product concepts; and the commercial application of our products.
