NSF INCLUDES<\/a> (related to the 10 Big Ideas)<\/p>\n NSF INCLUDES Planning Grants are intended to build capacity in the community to undertake the activities necessary to establish future centers, alliances, or other large-scale networks to address a broadening participation challenge at scale https:\/\/www.nsf.gov\/pubs\/2019\/nsf19600\/nsf19600.htm<\/a> (Program Solicitation, Sept. 9, 2019)<\/p>\n NSF INCLUDES Planning Grants Solicitation – Q&A with NSF. Nov. 7, 2019, 1-2pm.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.includesnetwork.org\/events\/event-description?CalendarEventKey=75e45c36-b795-426e-b663-4e901799027e&CommunityKey=5e902dcd-362e-47be-a076-16bc71e2f038&Home=%2fgroups%2fgroup-home%2frecent-community-events<\/a><\/p>\n Growing Convergence Research<\/a> (related to the 10 Big Ideas)<\/p>\n The grand challenges of today — protecting human health; understanding the food, energy, water nexus; exploring the universe at all scales — will not be solved by one discipline alone. They require convergence: the merging of ideas, approaches and technologies from widely diverse fields of knowledge to stimulate innovation and discovery.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.nsf.gov\/publications\/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf19551<\/a> (Program Solicitation, Feb. 11, 2019)<\/p>\n Quantum Leap<\/a> (related to the 10 Big Ideas)<\/p>\n Many of today’s technologies — lasers, computers, GPS and LEDs among them — rely on the interaction of matter and energy at extremely small and discrete dimensions. By exploiting interactions of these quantum systems, next-generation technologies for sensing, computing, modeling and communicating will be more accurate and efficient. To reach these capabilities, researchers need understanding of quantum mechanics to observe, manipulate and control the behavior of particles and energy at dimensions at least a million times smaller than the width of a human hair.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.nsf.gov\/publications\/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf19559<\/a> (Program Announcement, Feb. 19, 2019)<\/p>\n Campus Cyberinfrastructure<\/a> (CC*)<\/p>\n The Campus Cyberinfrastructure (CC*) program invests in coordinated campus-level networking and cyberinfrastructure improvements, innovation, integration, and engineering for science applications and distributed research projects. Learning and workforce development (LWD) in cyberinfrastructure is explicitly addressed in the program. Science-driven requirements are the primary motivation for any proposed activity. https:\/\/www.nsf.gov\/funding\/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=504748<\/a><\/p>\n National Artificial Intelligence (AI) Research Institutes<\/a><\/p>\n Artificial Intelligence (AI) has advanced tremendously and today promises personalized healthcare; enhanced national security; improved transportation; and more effective education, to name just a few benefits. Increased computing power, the availability of large datasets and streaming data, and algorithmic advances in machine learning (ML) have made it possible for AI development to create new sectors of the economy and revitalize industries.
