Hi all,

 

                The DOE HEP has issued a FOA for “FY2022 ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH FOR HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS ”

 

https://science.osti.gov/hep/-/media/grants/pdf/foas/2022/SC_FOA_0002705.pdf

 

                A few notable features of the call:

 

LOI:               April 21, 2022

Submission: May 24, 2022

There are two paths for applications seeking support from this FOA: multi-institution teams and 3 single-institution “seed” awards.   

Multi-institution collaborations must be led by a DOE/National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) National Lab with a lead PI who is expected to charge not less than 25% of their effort to the award.

The intention of both the multi-institution teams and seed awards is to fund research. Support for equipment and computational hardware may be available at a lower priority and is expected to be capped per institution.

Total Funding: $10M (current and future FYs),

Ceiling: $3M for multi-institutional, and $150k for seed applications.

Floor: 350k for multi-institutional and $50k for seed applications

Project period: up to 3 years.

 

                Let’s discuss soon how to respond to this FOA.

 

                Best,

 

                Hong.
