The Simons Foundation

A private foundation (files IRS Form 990-PF). Most private foundations do not take unsolicited applications; the route in is usually a program officer.

Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

  • Autism genetics, sex differences, and ASD mechanism research
  • Fundamental mathematics, theoretical physics, and theory of computing
  • Marine microbial ecology, plankton biogeography, ocean 'omics
  • Computational and quantitative biology centers, often NSF-Simons cofunded
  • STEM education pipelines, scholars programs, and science outreach
  • Institutional capital and matching gifts, heavily Stony Brook and NYC

Typical grant

Median grant is about $72,000, with the middle half running $8,400 to $160,804, so most of the file is small: fellowships, travel, individual investigator supplements, and pieces of larger collaborations. The big checks, $1M to $20M, go to institutional infrastructure and named centers (New York Genome Center, Stony Brook matching gifts, Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing, NSF-Simons centers) rather than to single projects. Giving repeats hard: the same universities and the same collaboration titles reappear year over year in multi-site, multi-project structures.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

  • SIMONS COLLABORATION ON
  • SIMONS JUNIOR FACULTY FELLOWS
  • NSF-SIMONS CENTER
  • PRINCIPLES OF MICROBIAL ECOSYSTEMS
  • AUTISM SEX DIFFERENCES
  • SIMONS INVESTIGATOR

Positioning adjacent work

  • Frame work as one project or core within a multi-site collaboration, the structure they already fund repeatedly.
  • For autism-adjacent work, connect to sex differences, somatic variants, or SPARK/Simons VIP cohort data.
  • Ask in the $400K to $900K range for a single-lab project; that matches their per-site awards.
  • Emphasize theory, computation, and open data tools; they fund arXiv modernization and big-data pipelines.

Worth knowing: Money concentrates in NY, CA, and MA, with Stony Brook receiving repeated eight-figure institutional and matching support tied to the founders' history there. A large share flows to a stable set of elite institutions inside named Simons collaborations, so entry usually comes through joining an existing collaboration or being recruited as an investigator rather than arriving cold.
