NSF EPSCoR recently hosted its annual PI meeting in May, 2021. To see meeting presentations and recordings, visit the Meeting Website.

 

During 2021, NSF EPSCoR is conducting an extended visioning activity with its community nationwide, called The Future of NSF EPSCOR. There will be multiple opportunities for stakeholder input about the program’s impact and potential future strategies. Details can be found at the Future of NSF EPSCoR website. The site includes a contact form for those wishing to stay informed about planned activities.

 

A new NSF collaboration between OAC, EPSCoR, and OIA provides funding through a CC* Dear Colleague Letter (DCL) to address the disparities in campus-level networking and cyberinfrastructure that exacerbated the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in some areas of the country. The deadline for submission is October 11, 2021. As an additional resource please refer to The Quilt, a national coalition of non-profit U.S. regional research and education networks committed to innovation and advancement of purpose-built networks that empower public service missions.
