The Area of Science designation is to assist in assigning pre-applications to reviewers. To select the most appropriate science area code for your pre-application, you should consider whether reviewers who are knowledgeable in one or another Area of Science would be most likely to appreciate the significance of the project, the innovativeness of its approaches, and its potential impact.
