SUMMARY:Unlocking Defense Funding for Researchers
DESCRIPTION:On behalf of North Carolina Coalition for Defense Research (NC CDR) (an informal collaboration of university-based research entities coordinated by the NC Military Business Center)\,  The Institute for Convergent Science and Innovate Carolina at UNC Chapel Hill will host a 90-minute hybrid seminar “Unlocking Defense Funding for Researchers” to explain why you may want to consider DoD funding for your research\, the approach to funding and how it differs from National Science Foundation (NSF) and National Institute of Health (NIH)\, and how you can connect with people at DoD. A Q&A discussion will be held after the talk. \nWhere. In-person or virtual attendance available. \nIn-person: Innovate Carolina Junction\, 136 East Rosemary Street\, Chapel Hill\, NC 27514\n*In-person seating is limited to 40 people*\n \nLunch is provided courtesy of The Institute for Convergent Science and Innovate Carolina at UNC Chapel Hill.  \nVirtual: Attendance login credentials will be sent prior to session. \nParking. There is a parking deck at 125 East Rosemary Street\, Chapel Hill\, NC 27514\n \nFeatured Speaker.  Julia G. Barzyk\, PhD.  Founder\, Wise Investigator LLC and Former Army Research Office PI. Julia teaches PIs the hidden curriculum of the funding process so they can grow their careers. Previously\, Julia served for 10 years as Program Manager at the U.S. Army Research Office where she managed a portfolio of basic research in geoscience and civil engineering\, and also had management responsibilities for University Research Initiatives (URI) programs: Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) and the Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP).  She also led the Defense Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DEPSCoR) capacity-building program for the Army. Julia earned a PhD in Geophysical Sciences and an MS in Environmental Science & Public Policy from the University of Chicago and an MS in Geological Sciences (University of Florida) and a BA in Geology (University of Rochester). \nTarget Audience: STEM academics new to or experienced in the defense funding ecosystem. \nWhy Attend. Money and Interesting Opportunities \n\nUnderstanding the size of DoD annual research and development budget\nLearning the “flavors of DoD money\,” 6.1 (basic)\, 6.2 (applied) and 6.3 (advanced technology development)\nUnderstanding DoD’s focus on dual-use technology\nBrief summary of DoD’s fourteen critical technology areas\n\nSeed Areas: Biotech\, Quantum Science\, Future Gen Wireless\, Advanced Materials\nEffective Adoption Areas: Trusted AI & Autonomy\, Integrated Network Systems-of Systems\, Microelectronics\, Space\, Renewable Energy\, Advanced Computing and SW\, Human-Machine Interface\nDefense Specific Areas: Directed Energy\, Hypersonics\, Integrated Sensing and Cyber\n\n\nNavigating DoD funding opportunities\nInitiating and fostering productive relationships with DoD scientist and engineers\nDoD early-career funding programs\n\nNC CDR Purpose: To advance the collaboration among North Carolina university researchers\, the North Carolina innovation ecosystem\, and the defense sector to better identify\, understand and pursue early-stage research in support of national defense. \nNC CDR Vision.  North Carolina grows to a Top 10 state for annual DoD basic research spending and establishes itself as the “go to” state for national security research. \nNC CDR Tasks: \n\nFacilitate targeted DoD connections\nBroaden North Carolina and DoD researcher network\nSocialize\, educate\, mentor North Carolina researchers seeking DoD funding\n\nREGISTER
