Incubator (website)The TIIMES Institute engages programs of research at three levels: Incubation, Facilitation and Coordination. The Incubator is a mechanism that gives an idea time to flourish with the use of various resources such as retreats, workshops, visiting scholars, international programs, strategic partnerships activities, reviews, proposals, and more. Incubation efforts may lead to the idea developing into a Strategic Initiative, Project, or Program. Facilitation takes the form of community workshops that are tasked to exchange and discuss recent findings; assess the state-of-the-science; and formulate new directions in the form of a white paper. The Institute may provide limited research co-sponsorship; host and support students, post doctoral appointees, Faculty Fellows and NCAR Affiliate Scientists for these efforts. Coordination of integrative research programs includes the conduct of projects through application of substantial resources together with an emphasis on external participation and external co-leadership. In some instances there will be a progression over time from Incubation to Facilitation and Program Coordination, as appropriate. |
