Funding for international research projects has been announced by the Autonomous Province of Trento, Italy, and ISR

Funding for international research projects in solar power, cell-based systems, and ultra-low power systems has been announced by the Autonomous Province of Trento, Italy, and ISR. These collaborations funded by the Autonomous Province of Trento are part of a partnership cemented through a framework program agreement between the province and the University of Maryland. As part of this relationship, white papers were solicited for joint projects in bioengineering/biomedical devices/bio-microsystems; renewable energy and storage/nanomaterials; and microsystems. Energy-Autonomous Ultra-Low Power Vision Systems (EnerVis) was among the three selected projects that received funding. Dr. Pamela Abshire (ECE/ISR) , Dr. Reza Ghodssi (ECE/ISR) , Dr. Gang Qu (ECE/ISR), and Dr. Martin Peckerar (ECE) are the lead principle investigators from the University of Maryland for this project.
