The US National Science Foundation (NSF) has recently announced ten FAIROS Research Coordination Network grants, which are intended to advance use of the FAIR principles and open science practices (I shared the announcement of the call for proposals here some months ago). Our colleagues at ARL have an excellent summary of the awards and a little background on the program at

I am delighted that CNI will be working with the  FAIR-HEP RCN work (this is the last award on the list in the ARL summary).
