NSF Webinar on the Internet Measurement Research (IMR) Program
The NSF program solicitation Internet Measurement Research (IMR): Methodologies, Tools, and Infrastructure (IMR), launched by the CISE Directorate in partnership with the MPS Directorate, continues to receive submissions in 2023. The submission deadlines are February 15, 2023, for Track 1 and March 8, 2023, for Track 2.
Please see NSF 22-519 for details.
This competition may be of interest to mathematics and statistics researchers who are creating new mathematical/stochastic models and statistical methodologies for Internet measurement research and/or developing innovative techniques or methodologies to ensure privacy protection or other novel methodologies and analyses.
An informational webinar is scheduled for Thursday, December 15, 2022, 3:00-4:00 PM Eastern time. This webinar will provide an overview of this program. More details about how to register for the webinar are available here: https://beta.nsf.gov/events/internet-measurement-research-program-webinar
RF Webinar on NSF PIRE Program
November 30 (12 noon – 1pm), NSF Partnerships for International Research and Education (PIRE) Grants
Overview of Webinar: International engagement is increasingly critical to keeping the U.S. globally competitive at the frontiers of knowledge. The PIRE program supports a set of cutting-edge interdisciplinary projects focused on use-inspired research on climate change and/or clean energy in which advances require international collaboration. PIRE projects support team readiness to grow into prominent enduring international hubs of research excellence that advance knowledge, empower communities, and generate discovery and innovative technological solutions at a global scale. PIRE support is intended to scale up and expand research in all science and engineering disciplines and in interdisciplinary areas by enhancing and building partnerships beyond the PIRE funding period and catalyzing readiness to grow to center level activity. PIRE promotes cooperation among scientists and engineers from all nations and enables research at the leading edge of science and engineering by facilitating partnerships with others nationally and internationally, by educating and preparing a diverse, world-class STEM workforce, and by fostering institutional capacity for international collaboration. The PIRE projects should enhance diversity, equity and inclusion in science and engineering in both research and education.
Targeted Audience: CUNY Science and Engineering faculty
Presenters: John Tsapogas, Director, RFCUNY-APPS and Masahiro Kawaji, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, CCNY

NSF Listening Sessions on Supporting Low-Income STEM Students
The NSF Scholarships in STEM (S-STEM) program is convening two listening sessions focused on the strengths, challenges and needs of low-income students pursuing undergraduate and graduate degrees in STEM areas and how they can be better supported. Stakeholders from higher education, industry, government, non-profits and other sectors are invited to share their insights on topics including academic and co-curricular supports, food and housing insecurity, family responsibilities, and any other issues related to the realities of this critical student population.
WHEN:
Friday November 4 2022, 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM Eastern Daylight Time
Registration link: https://ida-org.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/vJIsceCrrj0rEwJdy5H9zkdTZ-D6kg6Ov3w
November 7 2022, 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM Eastern Standard Time
Registration link: https://ida-org.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/vJIscu6grzkqG8XpXYpW0UqU2ngVVjSFrGg
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: These sessions are open to any members of the public who engage with low-income students in STEM, including: faculty; higher education administrators; college and university financial aid, student services, and admissions staff; students; NSF staff and other government personnel; members of the nonprofit community; industry representatives; and researchers.
WHERE: The listening session will be conducted virtually via Zoom.
RSVP: Pre-registration is required for this event. Please pre-register here for the 11/4 session and here for the 11/7 session. A Zoom meeting link and password will be sent to you after your registration is confirmed.
GUIDING QUESTIONS: As part of the listening session, NSF is seeking to foster discussion of the following points:
1. What strategies are institutions using to support low-income students? What strategies are the students themselves employing? What is working? What isn’t?
2. What factors are critical to building an effective academic and co-curricular support structure for low-income STEM students? What gaps do you see that need to be addressed?
3. What are your experiences with peer or faculty mentoring for low-income students? Are there any particularly effective or promising formats or practices? What are areas of challenge?
4. The NSF Scholarships in STEM (S-STEM) program funds projects that provide financial, academic, and co-curricular supports for low-income students in STEM. What is your awareness of, and/or experience with, the program (e.g. requirements, accessibility, outcomes, or other factors?)
AGENDA: After introductory remarks, there will be an open forum for participants followed by a breakout session.
LOGISTICS: The IDA Science and Technology Policy Institute will be facilitating the meeting on NSF’s behalf. The meeting will be recorded. Participation in this session implies consent for NSF to capture your name, voice, and likeness, and anything you say may be recorded and transcribed for NSF use. Moderators will manage participation and remove disruptive participants if necessary. For questions about session logistics, contact Dr. Brian Zuckerman (bzuckerm@ida.org) at IDA.
For other questions regarding the listening session, please contact Michael Ferrara (mferrara@nsf.gov) at NSF.
Update on NSF CSSI
The NSF-wide solicitation on Cyberinfrastructure for Sustained Scientific Innovation (CSSI) has been revised for FY 2023 and has the submission deadline of December 16, 2022.
Please see NSF 22-632 for details.
This competition may be of interest to mathematics and statistics researchers who are developing software tools and infrastructure, especially if they are working in teams and the tools address the demonstrated needs of a community of researchers.
An informational webinar is scheduled for Thursday, October 20, 2022, at 1:00 PM Eastern time. This webinar will provide an overview of this program and the recent changes made in the solicitation. More details about how to register for the webinar are available here:
