Upcoming Projects

Below are preliminary statements of scope for new cooperative research projects (available as downloadable files for the complete latest programs and as individual project web pages). Volunteer project panels will develop fully detailed requests for proposals (RFPs) that will be available here. The successful proposer will carry out the research under the direction of the project panel.
