This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure under the CFDA Program 47.070 "Computer and Information Science and Engineering" provides $309,000 to Cornell University to develop an innovative training program for the community of scientists using the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) facility. The training materials and activities will focus on reducing barriers to effectively utilizing CHESS instruments, data, and tools, as well as enabling these researchers to leverage national computing resources and services offered by the NSF. The goal is to increase computing skills, awareness, and literacy for CHESS researchers, particularly those with limited prior expertise, thereby accelerating scientific innovations in synchrotron X-ray science across diverse fields like materials science, physics, chemistry, and biology. No subawards are planned under this grant, which has a project period from Sep 1, 2023 to Aug 31, 2026.
