NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION RESEARCH.\n\n       (a) In General.--The Director of the National Science\n     Foundation, in consultation with the Director of the National\n     Institutes of Health and the Director of the National\n     Institute of Mental Health and taking into consideration\n     prioritized research agendas or strategic plans, as\n     appropriate, shall, subject to the availability of\n     appropriations, award grants on a competitive, merit-reviewed\n     basis to institutions of higher education (or consortia of\n     such institutions) to support multidisciplinary, fundamental\n     research with potential relevance to suicide, including\n     potential relevance to prevention and treatment, including,\n     but not limited to--\n       (1) basic understanding of human social behavior;\n       (2) the neural basis of human cognition;\n       (3) basic understanding of cognitive, linguistic, social,\n     cultural, and biological processes related to human\n     development across the lifespan;\n\n[[Page H9170]]\n\n       (4) basic understanding of perceptual, motor, and cognitive\n     processes, and their interaction, in typical human behavior;\n     and\n       (5) basic understanding of the relevance of drug and\n     alcohol abuse.\n       (b) Encouraging Applications From Early Career\n     Researchers.--To promote the development of early career\n     researchers, in awarding funds under subsection (a), the\n     Director of the National Science Foundation shall encourage\n     applications submitted by early career researchers, including\n     doctoral students or postdoctoral researchers.\n\n  Mrs. DINGELL (during the reading).
