The quality of research is to be evaluated by publication venues and number of visitors.

A new and exciting opportunity from the NSF! EPSCoR jurisdictions have an opportunity to greatly expand their research ecosystems in order to further develop their jurisdictional research capacity and broaden the participation of all individuals within the research ecosystems. This takes place within 3 phases. The overall purpose of this three-phase workshop series (Virtual April 17-18, 2024, and in person at NSF May 22-23 2024) is to enable a forum for the EPSCoR community to collaborate and develop tools, best practices, and resources to enhance the research competitive advantage of the overall EPSCoR community. The series of workshops is designed to bring the entire EPSCoR community together to discuss strengths, opportunities, and challenges as they work to develop their research ecosystems. It is expected that through these workshops that each jurisdiction develops its own unique approach based on the intersectionality of the unique strengths, opportunities, and challenges present in its research ecosystem and be able to share these best practices across the entire EPSCoR community.

☎️ Calling all NSF applicants, awardees, reviewers, and enthusiasts! The National Science Board (NSB) is wrapping up its first extensive evaluation of National Science Foundation (NSF) merit review criteria in over a decade and they want to hear YOUR perspectives on the utility of the current criteria! The comment period is short (30 days), which limits the ability of organizations to provide representative feedback, so it’s imperative that individual researchers take the time to share insights gleaned from their experiences as applicants, awardees, and reviewers.
