Please share widely. | | | | Applications are sought for collaborative, one year OVPR diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) team awards. Awards are up to $25k to support disciplinary teams consisting of multiple investigators working with a collection of undergraduates with a preference for students from traditionally marginalized groups. The goals are to engage these students in mentored research and training experiences that prepare them to excel as next generation researchers and scholars. In FY22, it is anticipated that there will be up to 4 OVPR DEI Team Awards funded through the Seeding Excellence Initiative (SEI).
Applications are due April 1, 2022. See the OVPR DEI Team Awards RFP here. | | | Applications are sought for collaborative, two-year OVPR Interdisciplinary Scholars proposals with awards up to $250k/year over two years ($500k total) to support teams coalescing around the climate-environment-health nexus. In FY22, it is anticipated that there will be two OVPR Interdisciplinary Scholars awards funded through SEI.
Applications are due June 1, 2022. See the OVPR Interdisciplinary Scholars RFP here. | | | | Do you want to connect with others regarding Climate Change/Sustainability research?

Highlights include:
- New programs and initiatives
- NSF Directorate sessions
- Future directions and strategies for national science policy
- Proposal preparation and the merit review process
- Award management topics
The conference is designed to give new faculty, researchers, and administrators key insights into a wide range of current issues at NSF. NSF program officers will provide up-to-date information about specific funding opportunities and answer attendee questions.
Registration will be free of charge and opens on Wednesday, May 11th at 12 p.m. EST. Sign up here to be notified of conference registration details. For those who cannot attend the live conference, all conference sessions will be available on-demand shortly after the event. | | | The 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) is a hybrid event being held August 29–31, 2022 in Iowa City and virtually.
The symposium will be hosted by the University of Iowa Technology Institute and arranged in collaboration with the International Ergonomics Association's Technical Committee on Digital Human Modeling and Simulation. The Iowa Virtual Human Summit (IVHS) will immediately follow DHM on August 31.
DHM 2022 provides an international forum for researchers and practitioners to report their latest innovations, summarize the state of the art in the field, and exchange ideas, results, and visions in all fields of digital human modeling research and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Ergonomics
- Biomechanics
- Biomedicine
- Wearables
- Virtual Reality and DHM
- Modeling and Simulation
- Human Systems Engineering
- Human Physical Modeling
- DHM in safety applications
- Human-Robot (Cobot) coordination and simulation
