Annual report dates come from the budget period on your award notice. That date is not public, so it is not shown here.
How we got this date
- NSF lists this award's end date as 31 August 2028.
- NSF rules say the final report is due no later than 120 days after that.
- So the final report is due by 29 December 2028.

Abstract
With this award, the Molecular Foundations for Biotechnology (MFB) Program is funding Drs. Chaolin Zhang and Harris H. Wang from Columbia University to engineer modular proteins that can be programmed to precisely edit sequences of RNA messages or control the expression of genes encoded in these messenger RNAs in human cells. This project adapts a unique class of plant proteins, called pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR)…
