NSF Invites SROs to Attend May's NSF EPSCoR PI Meeting

The NSF Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) program would like to invite your faculty to attend their hybrid NSF EPSCoR principal investigator meeting this month. The meeting includes sessions with content that is useful for both current and prospective PIs, such as updates on NSF's budget, Office of Legislative and Public Affairs, TIP and GRANTED, in addition to the EPSCoR-specific content.

Please see below for links to the registration and agenda, and please share with your faculty! Faculty are encouraged to attend online.

This two-day hybrid meeting will be held in person with a virtual component. Anyone within an EPSCoR-eligible jurisdiction is welcome to attend. This event is being offered free of charge, but registration is required. Details are below:

As noted, this event offers a virtual hybrid component via Zoom for those who are unable to attend in person. Zoom login information will be sent out to registered participants who have indicated their preference for virtual attendance. However, if possible, we encourage you to attend the 2023 PI meeting in person to take advantage of opportunities for community interaction and engagement on the future of NSF EPSCoR, along with our NSF open house, where multiple NSF divisions and programs will be on-hand to discuss funding opportunities and answer questions.
