Com/IS/Eng: computer science /Info system/engineering

Engineering includes bioengineering, biomedical engineering and quantum engineering besides traditional engineering. Computer engineering is not included. 

Physics: # of Quantum Information Science award is higher than that of condensed matter physics  (29:21, 22 for particle physics). 

Life Science: what is difference between genetics and genomics ? I googled but still do not have some good understanding.

The NSF's focus on quantum engineering is broad and includes materials science, but it's not solely focused on "materials quantum gap engineering". The NSF supports a wide range of quantum information science and engineering (QISE) research and development initiatives, including: 

• Quantum Computing: Developing functional quantum computers to solve complex problems in various fields, including materials science.
• Quantum Sensors: Researching and developing new sensor technologies that utilize quantum phenomena for highly precise measurements in areas like medicine and geology.
• Quantum Communications: Exploring quantum phenomena like entanglement for secure data protection and communication networks.
• Quantum Materials: Investing in research to understand and control quantum phenomena to design and fabricate novel quantum materials with desired properties.
• National Quantum Virtual Laboratory (NQVL): This initiative accelerates the development of quantum technologies by providing distributed access to resources for creating functional technologies that exploit quantum phenomena.
