The Partners In Technology Forum
will provide a unique venue for invited scientists and engineers from ORNL’s
University Partners and ORAU’s HBCU/MEI Council Institutions to meet and
discuss areas of mutual interest. The overarching goal of the forum is to
foster a new approach to establishing technology-focused partnerships that
will lead to enhanced collaborative research, joint faculty appointments,
and student opportunities at ORNL, DOE, and other federal agencies.
The central research theme of the forum is Ultrascale Computing and
Simulation Science, and its application to the following research areas:
-
Advanced Materials
-
Complex Biological Systems
-
Energy
-
Nanoscale Science and Technology
-
National and Homeland Security
