Dear colleagues,

Sincerely,

The project is designed to create a multidisciplinary body of research on the energy and environmental impacts of sharing platforms, artificial intelligence, and blockchain technologies. The project will select 8-10 researchers for grants of up to $35,000. Funds are available for international proposals, with preference given to those done with U.S. partners. Proposals must should be submitted by May 31, 2018.
