The Joint Theory Institute (JTI), a multi-disciplinary research institution jointly at Argonne and the University of Chicago, is currently accepting a second round of proposals in the broad area of theory that strengthen collaborations between staff at the two institutions. The JTI embraces problems in theory of condensed matter, chemistry, high energy physics, nuclear physics and interdisciplinary topics involving nanoscience, biology, economics, and computing. Proposals will be accepted from members of the University and Argonne communities. Successful proposals could include joint research programs with shared students and pos-docs, programs for joint conferences and workshops, and thematically driven visitors programs. Other innovative joint activities will be seriously considered. Successful proposals from the previous call can be found in the history section of this website. Proposals should not be longer than five pages in length (with standard format) with a brief description of the project, an indication of why it should be funded by the JTI, and a budget. Funding levels may vary substantially with the largest awards in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Proposals will be reviewed and awards selected by the JTI advisory board. Key factors in selection are interactivity and innovation. It is critical that joint efforts at both the university and the laboratory be represented in the proposal. In this second call, some preference will be given to proposal authors not already in funded JTI programs. Proposals should be sent to JTI@anl.gov. The deadline for this second round of proposals is July 5. Notification of those proposals JTI will recommend for funding will be made within two weeks after the end of the call. For further information see our web-site at JTI.anl.gov.
