Lewis-Burke Associates LLC – September 17, 2021     The National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Engineering (ENG) has released new topics for the fiscal year (FY) 2022 and FY 2023 Emerging Frontiers in Research and Innovation (EFRI) program:   Engineered Living Systems (ELiS) , and   Brain Inspired Dynamics for Engineering Energy Efficient Circuits and Artificial Intelligence (BRAID).   EFRI provides interdisciplinary/convergent research teams the opportunity to conduct innovative fundamental engineering research in emerging areas.      EFRI proposals should describe plans to significantly transform the breadth of knowledge on fundamental engineering in these topic areas with a lasting impact on national need or a grand challenge.  This is an interagency solicitation, in collaboration with the Department of Defense (Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA)) and the National Aeron...

  Federal Highway Administration Local Aid Support Presents   Innovation Exchange Webinar on Evaluation of New Data Collection Technology   for Visitor Use Patterns on Federal Lands Thursday, September 16, 2021 | 2:00 - 3:30 p.m. ET Recreation travel is fundamentally different than commuter or freight travel patterns.  Federal Land managers are interested in better data to understand how to manage visitor travel while providing great visitor experiences and protecting resources.  The Evaluate Use of New Technology for Visitor Use Patterns study evaluated whether this new technology would advance understanding of visitor travel patterns and origin/destination for recreation travel.  The National Park Service, Federal Highways Administration (FHWA) and the US Fish and Wildlife Service cooperated to conduct the pilot at four parks/units: Arches National Park (National Park Service) Colorado National Monument (National Park Service) Joshua Tree National Park (N...

Each year, 4 undergraduates from OU are selected to compete in a statewide day of research presentations in Oklahoma City, with events held at both the Science Museum and the State Capitol. During this two-day event each student will meet with state legislators, display a poster and give a short presentation about their research project, and attend a reception. A panel of judges will determine winners of cash prizes, including the grand prize of a summer research internship worth $4500.   Eligibility : Student must be a legal resident of Oklahoma Student must be an undergraduate Research project must be in science (including social science), technology, engineering, or mathematics Research must have been conducted at OU or an OU affiliate institution Group projects are acceptable, but only one nominee may present the project and be eligible for a prize Selected participants must be able to attend a mandatory informational training session to be held via Zoom on Friday, January 7, 2...
