BERAC Charge A recognized strength of the Office of Science, and BER is no exception, is the development of tools and technologies that enable science - from synchrotrons to genomic sequencing to nano centers. The [December 2010] BERAC report identifies technology needs that will be important for BER to achieve the scientific grand challenges outlined in the report. These ranged from the development of new observational technologies for biological systems, climate model integration, and energy sustainability to the application of advanced computational and analytical capabilities to characterize network interactions.
BERAC Charge I am now charging BERAC to: Expand on the development and use of new tools that were only briefly mentioned in the long Term Vision report; Identify the development and use of new tools and their linkage to existing or new user facilities; Identify linkages between new tools and existing resources, new resources and to diverse scales of time and space; Expand on the concepts of virtual laboratories and collaborative tools, including a discussion of how to facilitate these concepts and interactions. I would like to receive a progress report on this charge at the Winter 2012 BERAC meeting and a final report at the Fall 2012 BERAC meeting.
