EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement Program: EPSCoR Research Incubators for STEM Excellence (E-RISE)
Funds a research incubator in an EPSCoR state or territory, built around that jurisdiction's own science priorities — at least $8 million.
E-RISE is EPSCoR's large capacity award. It funds hypothesis-driven or problem-driven research in a scientific area chosen to match a jurisdiction's own research ecosystem and priorities, as set out in its Science and Technology Plan or in other plans and reports from the relevant authorities.
The research goal has to be real. NSF says an E-RISE project must have a clearly articulated research go…
A jurisdiction-scale research incubator in an EPSCoR-eligible state, territory or commonwealth, in a topical area matching that jurisdiction's own science and technology priorities, with a clear hypothesis or problem at its centre and a plan to survive beyond the award.
