SUMMARY:DUE! Letter of Intent\, Focused EPSCoR Collaborations @NSF
DESCRIPTION:The Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPS
 CoR) is designed to fulfill the mandate of the National Science Foundatio
 n (NSF) to promote scientific progress nationwide. EPSCoR eligibility sta
 tus is yearly updated and reported in the EPSCoR website (see EPSCoR elig
 ibility).\n\nThrough this program\, NSF establishes partnerships with gov
 ernment\, higher education\, and industry that are designed to affect sus
 tainable improvements in a jurisdiction's research infrastructure\, Resea

 \n\nThe FEC program (formerly known as “EPSCoR Track-2 program”) builds i
 nterjurisdictional collaborative teams of EPSCoR investigators in Science
 \, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics (STEM) focus areas consiste

 are investigator-driven and must include researchers from at least two EP
 SCoR eligible jurisdictions with complementary expertise and resources ne
 cessary to address challenges\, which neither party could address as well
  or as rapidly independently.\n\nFEC projects have a comprehensive and in
 tegrated vision to drive discovery and build sustainable STEM capacity th
