Professors Liz Murnane, Vikrant Vaze, and Wesley Marrero are lead faculty on a team selected as one of 34 semifinalists for the inaugural NSF Regional Innovation Engines competition—spanning nearly all key technology areas and societal and economic challenges highlighted in the "CHIPS and Science Act." A partnership with UMass Lowell, their proposed engine is titled, "Advancing Health Equity Through Digital Technologies, Data Infrastructure, and Artificial Intelligence." Each Engine could receive up to $160 million over 10 years; NSF anticipates announcing the final list of awards this fall.
