2019 UD-ANL

WORKSHOP

WELCOME

University of DelawareArgonne National Laboratory

The University of Delaware and the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory invite researchers from UD and ANL to attend a daylong workshop on Tuesday, November 21, 2019 at the Embassy Suites in Newark, Delaware. Participants will have an opportunity to give a lightening talk and brainstorm about research directions in the breakout sessions. The workshop focus will be on five areas of significant research synergy between the two institutions:

Quantum Science

3D Manufacturing/ Materials

AI/ Data Science

Polymer Lifecycle

Interface Science

The outcome of this workshop will lead to a RFP for the second round of seed grants funded jointly by UD and ANL. We anticipate the timeline to be late fall for RFP, proposal submission and review in early spring 2020, with a project start date in summer 2020.
