Event Category: NM EPSCoR

Engineering Research Center Workshop
“Semiconductor Manufacturing Ecosystems in the Desert Southwest”

The 28th annual conference welcomes project researchers, students, and staff from 28 jurisdictions – plus leaders with the National Science Foundation's Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Researcher

This session will provide general information about E-RISE RII, including what distinguishes it from the EPSCoR Collaborations for Optimizing Research Ecosystems Research Infrastructure Improvement Program (E-CORE RII), eligibility criteria, and other frequently asked questions

Shifting to a research ecosystem approach is not trivial, and NSF EPSCoR understands that it will require a revision for each EPSCoR jurisdiction based on its own unique strengths, challenges, and opportunities. E-CORE RII and E-RISE RII programs provide significant opportunities and NSF EPSCoR requires key components to be present regarding the scope and co-production within the ecosystem, through collaboration among E-CORE projects, Jurisdictional Science and Technology Committees and Jurisdictional Science and Technology Plans.

The goal of this workshop is to identify research directions and priorities for the next generation of power electronics and energy conversion systems for the electric grid, transportation, and national security.

Purpose: To invite regional universities, industry, and national labs to learn about what we are planning to do (nurture a Directed Energy Ecosystem in the SW).

Event Highlights:

• Overview of the Directed Energy Center
• Technical/Industry/Workforce development talks
• Networking

A Workshop for NM Postdocs. Science is full of groundbreaking discoveries, but how do we effectively share them with the world? This free interactive workshop, designed specifically for postdocs, will equip you with the skills and knowledge to become a confident and compelling science communicator. Travel support may be available.

Workshop information

The New Mexico Research Symposium (NMRS), collaboratively hosted with the New Mexico Academy of Science (NMAS), is an annual conference with oral presentations, a poster competition, and a keynote address. The conference is geared to undergraduate and graduate students from New Mexico’s colleges and universities. Presentation and poster abstracts are published in the New Mexico Journal of Science.
