As previously communicated, RIO is coordinating efforts to ensure CU Boulder submits a competitive proposal to NSF’s Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSEC) program. A key ingredient for success is identifying a MRSEC Director who is a national leader in the field with a demonstrated ability to work with and develop an integrated team of researchers.
Please join RIO next week for presentations by our five NSF MRSEC Director nominees (listed below).
These 30-minute sessions will consist of 15 minutes of the nominee’s prepared remarks, followed by 15 minutes for question and answer from attendees as well as previously submitted questions. Presentations should be informed by NSF's MRSEC review criteria and demonstrate the nominee’s knowledge of CU Boulder and its cross-campus research strengths, convey their approach to building a cohesive and integrative center, describe their vision for the future of the MRSEC center and detail how the values of diversity, equity and inclusion will be manifested in center activities.
Registrants will receive a Qualtrics survey following each candidate presentation. All responses will be anonymous.
