The goal of analysis research is to maximize insights from the massive, disparate, unreliable and dynamic data that are--or could be--available to analysts, in a timely manner.
Our programs are in diverse technical disciplines but have common features involving potential transition partners at all stages, beginning with the definition of success, creating technologies that can earn the trust of the analyst user by providing the reasoning for results, and addressing uncertainty and data provenance explicitly.
The goal of collections research is to dramatically improve the value of collected data from all sources by developing new sensor and transmission technologies, new collection techniques that more precisely target desired information, and means for collecting information from previously inaccessible sources.

On July 22, 2026, the Department of Energy opened its FY26 Genesis Mission SBIR/STTR round — roughly 40 Phase I awards across four topic areas (biotech, quantum, materials, and autonomous labs), a $147 million Phase II pool, and a September 10 pitch deadline. This is how small businesses get inside the $5 billion Genesis Mission. Here is what each topic funds, how the money and timeline work, and the concrete strategy to compete.
Read articleNSF announced three more X-Labs topics on September 16, 2026 — Artificial Intelligence for Physical Systems is live, with Sequence to Function and Computation at the Limit of Physics coming this fall. The Q&A webinar is October 14 and an RFI on future topics closes October 30. The per-topic key-personnel restriction is what should be driving your team-building decisions.
Read articleThe Labor Department's RESTART grants closed April 15, but the $81 million program is a map, not just a deadline. Up to 20 awards, $5.1M ceilings, and a priority list — AI infrastructure, nuclear, advanced manufacturing, domestic minerals — that signals the shape of the next workforce funding cycle. Here is how to read it and position for what comes next.
