What is the new website introduced by NSF for proposals and reporting?

The new website introduced by the National Science Foundation (NSF) for proposals and reporting is Research.gov. This platform serves as a centralized hub for researchers to submit proposals, manage awards, and engage in reporting activities. It enhances efficiency and provides a user-friendly interface tailored to the needs of the research community.

Research.gov is designed to streamline the proposal submission process, offering features that facilitate collaboration and improve the management of proposals and reporting. It represents a move towards modernizing the NSF’s systems to better support researchers in their endeavors.

The other options represent different tools or platforms associated with NSF but do not serve the specific role of serving as the new consolidated site for proposals and reporting. Grants.gov is primarily a portal for federal grant opportunities, NSPIRES is geared towards NASA's proposals, and Fastlane is an older system that has been largely supplanted by Research.gov for NSF applications.
