This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program, supports the development of an innovative training program targeting the materials science research community that relies on advanced microscopes. The project, titled "CITEAM," aims to address the gap in researchers' knowledge of data management, scientific programming, and utilizing computing resources to process and analyze large datasets from microscopy instruments. The $310,000 award, with a performance period from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028, will fund the creation of a multifaceted training program covering topics such as microscope data processing, artificial intelligence methods for data analysis, and effective data management. The project brings together a team of experts in cyberinfrastructure and imaging-enabled materials science to develop self-paced modules, video lectures, templates, and other training resources to help researchers overcome challenges in handling large-scale datasets and leveraging novel computing methods and resources. The training program also includes an element of training the trainers, empowering research facilitators and laboratory staff to guide others in the use of cyberinfrastructure for materials science.
