Celebrate New Mexico women in STEM on Saturday, August 1st at 3PM at the UNM Domenici Building, room 3010 to celebrate with 17 top New Mexican women who have been selected to highlight a 16 month calendar. The calendars will be distributed to classrooms throughout the state. It will serve a dual purpose, with each feature page including the woman's accomplishments and stories that can also be used as a tear-off promotional poster to encourage young women to make STEM choices for education and careers.
Light and technological materials work together to produce alternative energy and lighting. Join Dr. Kirk as he discusses research on how the new field of molecular spintronics impacts solar energy, organic lighting, and understanding molecular electronic systems at the nanoscale.
NM ISE Net members are invited to apply for three different grant opportunities in Years 3, 4, or 5. Grant funds will be released on a reimbursable basis. Apply for three different grants: Communicating NM EPSCoR Research to a Public Audience Tier 1 (Mini Grants), Communicating NM EPSCoR Research to a Public Audience Tier 2 (Exhibit grants), and Collaborating & Communicating with NM EPSCoR Researchers.
The STEM Advancement Program (STEMAP) engages students from New Mexico regional universities, community colleges and tribal colleges in the research funded by New Mexico EPSCoR. This summer, students will participate in a week of workshops at New Mexico Tech on energy topics and scientific research and spent eight weeks working with New Mexico EPSCoR-funded faculty and students on cutting edge research that is important to New Mexico. The summer program concludes with the STEMAP Student Research Conference on July 30 at which the students present their results.
This meeting is an opportunity for all project participants to showcase their work, continue to expand and deepen their collaborations, and discover new possibilities for cyberinfrastructure-enhanced research and education. Our External Advisory Board members, experts from around the nation, will be attending to hear about our progress and provide their expert advice on how to achieve our project goals.
This student workshop will provide an overview and hands-on training for sample preparation and analysis of algal biochemical composition. The workshop will use the standardized procedures developed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory: http://www.nrel.gov/biomass/microalgal_procedures.html

Join us for an engaging hands-on software development workshop presented by the experts from Software Carpentry. You will accelrate from zero-to productive with the skills you will learn:
The Infrastructure Seed Award (ISA) program is designed to increase the impact of NM EPSCoR on the undergraduate student population at New Mexico’s non-PhD granting institutions. The intent of the Infrastructure Seed Awards program is to increase the access of undergraduate students, especially women and members of underrepresented groups, to research experiences by increasing non-PhD granting institutions’ capacity to provide research experiences for students.
Interdisciplinary Innovation Working Groups (I-IWG) provide a venue for researchers, educators, and nationally recognized experts to address grand challenges that require an interdisciplinary approach to transform science. Successful I-IWGs will result in innovative proposals to NSF or other agencies, publication of synthesis papers in peer-reviewed journals, or other defined outputs that are likely to contribute to increasing knowledge in research areas relevant to Energize New Mexico.
