Research Funding Government Programs Series
Sponsored this month by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology
SERIES DESCRIPTION:
As federal and state investments in research and development grow, researchers have sought to increase the funding they receive from these sources. In order to bolster the awareness of these programs, the National Academies’ UIDP and NCET2 will hold a series
of regularly scheduled webinars that highlight specific agencies and their programs that support research and development funding to researchers, faculty, students, universities and industry.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology
Wednesday, February 16, 2011 , 4:00-5:00 pm ET
Presenter:
Lorel Wisniewski, PhD
Acting Director, Technology Innovation Program (TIP)
National Institute of Standards and Technology
(Click
here or more info)
During this webinar, Dr. Wisniewski will discuss NIST's Technology Innovation Program (TIP), their current project portfolio and the potential for future funding opportunities at TIP.
The Technology Innovation Program (TIP) supports, promotes, and accelerates innovation in the United States through high-risk, high-reward research in areas of critical national need. TIP has the agility and
flexibility to make targeted investments in transformational R&D that will ensure our nation’s future through sustained technological leadership.
NIST, an agency of the
U.S. Department of Commerce, was founded in 1901 as the nation's first federal physical science research laboratory. Over the years, the scientists and technical
staff at NIST have made solid contributions to image processing, DNA diagnostic "chips," smoke detectors, and automated error-correcting software for machine tools. Just a few of the other areas in which NIST has had major impact include atomic clocks, X-ray
standards for mammography, scanning tunneling microscopy, pollution-control technology, and high-speed dental drills.
COST: Free, but registration required by clicking on the link above. We thank the NIST for their financial sponsorship of this month's webinar allowing it to continue to be free to attendees.
