The Midwest Big Data Hub, an NSF-funded group including U-M’s Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS), is seeking proposals from early career researchers to enhance collaborations with data-producing organizations to improve access to data. Senior researchers are also welcome to apply for funding for activities that bring together data producers and researchers with significant participation from early career researchers.

The goal of the funding, provided by the Computing Community Consortium, is to improve partnerships and collaboration between data producing organizations in industry, government, and academia and researchers. Activities can include workshops, internships, hackathons at universities, data-related competitions, travel grants and lecture series. Awards will range from between $10,000 and $40,000.

Deadlines for applications are April 1 and May 1.

For more information, including how to apply, read the proposal description on the MIDAS website.
