- In alignment with legislative and study recommendations EPSCoR re-examined its eligibility methodology to ensure that it is simple, transparent, fair, and stable. We engaged with the EPSCoR community and stakeholders through a variety of ways to ensure that all concerns were addressed and to get feedback to help develop a more robust eligibility model. To kick off this community engagement on eligibility, EPSCoR hosted an informational webinar and Q&A session on Thursday, March 14. Slides from the webinar can be viewed here.
- EPSCoR held a regional outreach meeting, "All About Research Center Programs," in Mobile, AL in April. The event provided extensive information about the various NSF Center programs and was intended to help pave the way for EPSCoR researchers to take the next steps in leveraging their current funding and research to create a culture of sustainability and move onto the next big project. EPSCoR is currently looking to host more of these types of regional outreach meetings and is soliciting community feedback on the next topic and location. Please send suggestions to nsfepscor@nsf.gov.
