Mid-scale Research Infrastructure-1
National Science Foundation
Description
- Program: NSF Mid-scale Research Infrastructure-1 (Mid-scale RI-1)
- Purpose: Fund experimental research capabilities that fall between NSF’s MRI program and its Major Facilities—filling the “mid-scale” gap across all NSF-supported science and engineering fields.
- What counts as Research Infrastructure (RI): Any mix of facilities, equipment, instrumentation, computational hardware/software, large shared datasets, and the people needed to develop and operate them. Projects…
NSF-supported science and engineering research increasingly relies on cutting-edge infrastructure. With its Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) program and Major Multi-user Facilities ("Major Facilities") projects, NSF supports infrastructure projects at the lower and higher range of infrastruc…
