This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) establishes the "Inter-American Network of Networks of Quantum Chromodynamics Challenges" (IANN QCD), a new international research initiative. The $300,000 award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2029, brings together scientists from the United States, Canada, and Latin America to collaborate on fundamental questions in quantum chromodynamics (QCD), which explores how matter forms and evolves. The project aims to strengthen research partnerships across the Americas and serve as a platform for future global collaboration. It supports coordination with major research efforts, such as the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and the Large Hadron Collider, and provides training for early-career researchers in areas like scientific computing, data analysis, and accelerator science. The initiative emphasizes participation from a wide range of networks, institutions, and communities across the Americas to foster collaboration, openness, and accessibility.
