NM EPSCoR has released an updated science and technology plan, developed in collaboration with the NM EPSCoR Jurisdictional Steering Committee, comprised of more than 20 representatives from New Mexico academic institutions, industry, national laboratories, and state government.
Who: The course is aimed at graduate students and other researchers. You don't need to have any previous knowledge of the tools that will be presented at the workshop.Where: Room B30 Zimmerman Library, 1 University of New Mexico, 87131. Get directions with OpenStreetMap or Google Maps.
Presenters:Raisa IslamDr. Lorie LiebrockJessica Trujillo-TorresDescription: Join us to learn about an AI-driven framework that transforms research documents into structured, searchable knowledge to strengthen discovery and collaboration. Developed at NMT under the NSF RIO-NM project, the system addresses a persistent challenge in research ecosystems—the manual, time-intensive process of identifying related work and potential collaborators across institutions.
Please join us for our inaugural networking event designed specifically for bioscience innovators throughout New Mexico.• Spot potential partners and investors from across the room with color-coded name tags by industry.• Love the conversation?

Earlier this month, more than 30 New Mexico EPSCoRians flew to New Orleans for the 2026 NSF EPSCoR Summit, held May 19–22. This year’s conference welcomed more than 600 participants and was organized by the American Association for the Advancement of Science.New Mexico had a strong presence at the 2026 EPSCoR Summit in New Orleans—showing up not only as attendees but also as facilitators, speakers, moderators, and poster presenters. 
Join us for a conversation on Strengthening State Academy–EPSCoR Partnerships. We’ll share examples, explore new ideas, and connect colleagues across states.  Register here: https://loom.ly/drxg6p8
The Research Infrastructure Optimization for New Mexico (RIO‑NM) NSF E‑CORE project, led by NM EPSCoR, continued to gain momentum in Project Year 2. This year, the team reported several notable achievements to the National Science Foundation (NSF) that underscore RIO‑NM’s sustained commitment to strengthening research capacity across New Mexico. Below are two research highlights submitted to NSF as part of the Year 2 Annual Report. 
The 2025 edition of the New Mexico Journal of Science, a peer-reviewed publication produced jointly by the New Mexico Academy of Science and New Mexico EPSCoR, is now publicly accessible at https://www.nmas.org/2025-nmjs.
What does it look like when a state recognizes the quiet but steady work of its research community? On January 29, the New Mexico House of Representatives offered an answer to that question by formally acknowledging NM EPSCoR for its contributions to the state’s research ecosystem.
The event on "Research Awareness in Artificial Intelligence" is aimed for currently enrolled Mathematical Sciences (i.e.,
