Strengthening and Expanding Regional CEC Initiatives to Promote Research-to-Application Partnerships
This project expands upon two previous efforts to focus on research-to-application partnerships and expanding existing efforts.
Project Support
This project is supported by a grant from the NOAA National Sea Grant Office, award NA24OARX417C0591-T1-01. Leveraging the previous Southeast efforts, that included the release of a request for proposals to address the identified priorities, we were able to fund two additional projects that were submitted to the FY2023 competitive research competition.
