The Law and Science Dissertation Grant (LSDG) program promotes the progress of science by identifying and supporting doctoral dissertation research projects that have the potential to advance science in the multidisciplinary law and science field, including the disciplines of anthropology, criminology/criminal justice, data science, environmental science, economics, empirical legal studies, forensic science, human rights, information technology, political science, psychology, and sociology, among others. Each year the LSDG program will provide research support for up to fifteen dissertation projects. In doing so, the LSDG program nurtures the next generation of law and science scholars by funding dissertation research with the highest intellectual merit and broader impacts.The LSDG program includes policies and procedures to ensure it funds only the most meritorious dissertation research projects in law and science. An Advisory Council, composed of representatives nominated by the various professional organizations that comprise the law and science research community, will assist in the review process and provide guidance on general policies and procedures. The LSDG program has a commitment to diversity that ensures award recipients represent various perspectives, including substantive representation of fields, demographic representation, and institutional representation. Awards up to $20,000 each will support basic scientific research (applied research will not be funded) that is theoretically derived and empirically oriented. Data will be collected from awardees, who will provide regular progress and annual reports, and all applicants will be surveyed to assess early career trajectories. These data will contribute to research on predictors of success in STEM training. The LSDG program will strengthen connections among the professional societies that comprise the law and science community and further efforts to increase the intellectual impact of law and science research.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

LSDG计划每年都会为多达15个论文项目提供研究支持。在此过程中，LSDG计划通过资助具有最高知识分子和更广泛影响的论文研究来培养下一代法律和科学学者。LSDG计划包括政策和程序，以确保其仅资助法律和科学中最优异的论文研究项目。由由各种专业组织提名的代表组成的咨询委员会将协助审查过程，并提供有关一般政策和程序的指导。 LSDG计划对多样性有一项承诺，可确保奖励受助者代表各种观点，包括实质性代表，人口统计学代表和机构代表。最高$ 20,000的奖项将支持基础科学研究（将不会资助应用程序），理论上衍生并以经验为导向。数据将从获奖者那里收集，他们将提供定期的进度和年度报告，所有申请人将进行调查以评估早期职业轨迹。这些数据将有助于研究STEM培训成功的预测指标。 LSDG计划将加强构成法律和科学界的专业社会之间的联系，以及进一步的努力，以增加法律和科学研究的智力影响。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的审查标准通过评估来进行评估的。
