I fought to pass the Chips and Science Act for smart investments into New Hampshire like this one, and I will continue working to increase opportunities in science and technology for Granite Staters that spur innovation and economic growth across our state.” The initiative, called New Hampshire Long-term Investment to Fuel Transformative research (NH-LIFT), will provide several different opportunities—for students to pursue research experiences in areas that align with their interests; for academic and industry researchers to expand their research pursuits through external funding and accessible research infrastructure; and for the state to increase and retain a skilled workforce-ready population. Among NH-LIFT’s initiatives are: Developing a statewide network of research facilities to broaden access to advanced instrumentation and technical expertise. Increasing student and early-career researcher success through cross-institution programming and partnerships that support research, mentoring, career development and retention. Improving research support and service capacity at primarily undergraduate institutions and small businesses. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:12:30Z |
