Funding Opportunity Announcement: Michael R Anastasio LANL-UC Early Career Faculty Scholar program.

by

Pre-Proposal Deadline: March 3, 2025

Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and the UC National Laboratories (UCNL) at the University of California (UC), Office of the President (UCOP) are jointly inviting applications for the Michael R Anastasio LANL-UC Early Career Faculty Scholar program. The winning proposal will fund one tenure-track faculty member in the UC system with up to $750k for a 3-year award cycle, planned to commence in October 2025. The technical topic for this call will be in a computational science subject area (details below) centering on overlapping interests between the UC faculty and the Laboratory’s national security programs and mission.
The initiative is intended to develop the next-generation UC academic leadership with strong and enduring Los Alamos National Laboratory connections. This 3-year award allows the recipient to develop their innovative ideas, advance their research, gain tenure, and become recognized for their professional leadership. The award fund is structured to allow faculty to build a research group including undergraduates, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows. The award also provides Laboratory researchers opportunities to collaborate and be more connected to the UC community to enhance its workforce and research objectives. The required annual onsite visit to Los Alamos National Laboratory is intended to strengthen the technical and workforce pipeline connections between UC and the Lab.

Application deadline for summer 2025: February 15, 2025

The IFE-STAR Ecosystem coordinates a national IFE summer research program for undergraduate students enrolled in US universities and colleges. Students who are accepted into this program will have opportunities to do IFE summer research at partnering organizations and universities across the nation. Applications will be shared with the research institutions based on the student’s selected interest within the application. Each institution will independently reach out to selected applicants as they fill their summer research openings. Financial support is available through each institution.

Consortium with Minority Serving Institutions Delivers Opportunities for Students

by

The Consortium for High Energy Density Science (CfHEDS) had much to celebrate at its annual meeting this summer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL).

“It was exciting to connect with our academic partners and their students,” said Federica Coppari, the LLNL liaison to CfHEDS. “The best part is hearing from the students about their research experience.”

The goal of CfHEDS is to expand and diversify the pipeline of students in high-energy-density science (HEDS), a field critical to much of the work done at LLNL. In 2018, CfHEDS was launched with a grant from the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA)’s Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program (MSIPP), which has been renewed through 2027.
