Materials Science and Engineering Data Challenge Deadline: 2016-03-31
Award: $50,000

We are seeking novel uses of accessible digital data to advance Materials Science and Engineering knowledge to accelerate the transition to industrial applications.

To advance the National goals of the Materials Genome Initiative (MGI), we are soliciting innovative approaches to solve materials science and engineering problems primarily through the analysis of publicly accessible digital data. Areas of particular interest include discovery of new materials to meet an application need, or development of a new model describing processing-structure-property relationships in either a structural (load bearing), functional (electrical, optical or magnetic), or multifunctional material.

Emphasis will be on use of existing and accessible data sources, novelty of the approach, and validation of results.

Winners will be invited to present their work at a special session (reasonable expenses paid) during Materials Science & Technology 2016 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
