The CAREERS (Cyberteam to Advance Research and Education in Eastern Regional Schools) CyberTeam Program is a 3-year initiative funded by the NSF to build a regional pool of Research Computing Facilitators (RCF) to support researchers at small and midsized institutions in Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. To learn more about this program, please review the CyberTeam-CAREERS project at URI.

URI has just launched its first CyberTeam-CAREERS project. The project is titled “An optimized search algorithm for gravitational waves from post-merger remnants” and is led by Dr. Robert Coyne of the Department of Physics. The student RCF is Christopher Nadeau, a senior physics major at URI. Dr. Gaurav Khanna will serve as a mentor for this project. The team will utilize the AiMOS supercomputer at RPI.
