Mobilizing Equity-centered Research in Cyber-Human Systems and Informatics: Sociotechnical systems play a vital role in our society, encompassing everything from smart homes and workplaces to online platforms, healthcare, and education systems. These complex systems involve the interaction of social and technical elements, shaping their functioning and impact. Addressing these challenges requires interdisciplinary research and collaboration across fields such as sociology, psychology, computer and information science and engineering (CISE), and organizational studies. This project will advance equity-centered research in cyber-human systems and informatics, focusing on institutions in the Southwest United States. Through a regional conference, it will bring together aspiring researchers from Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs) and research-intensive institutions to identify strengths, needs, and strategies for promoting equity-centered research. By exploring regional insights and building collaborative models, the project aims to strengthen research capacity at MSIs in the Southwest and advance the goals of the National Science Foundation CISE-MSI program. The project will leverage principles and strategies from team science to organize community building activities and a regional conference for aspiring and early-career researchers from four southwestern states: Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas. The two-day working conference will focus on (1) identifying institutional and individual strengths and needs related to computing and informatics research, (2) equity-centered topics including fairness, ethics, accountability, transparency, and social justice, and (3) strategies for promoting undergraduate research. In addition to potentially increasing the number and quality of research proposals from MSIs to the National Science Foundation, the project will demonstrate the practical application of team science principles for community building and identify models of inter- and intra-institutional collaboration that support research expansion and innovation at MSIs in the Southwest.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

动员以股权为中心的网络人类系统和信息学研究：社会技术系统在我们的社会中起着至关重要的作用，包括从智能家居和工作场所到在线平台到在线平台，医疗保健和教育系统的一切。这些复杂的系统涉及社会和技术元素的相互作用，塑造它们的功能和影响。应对这些挑战需要跨学科的研究和协作，例如社会学，心理学，计算机和信息科学与工程（CISE）以及组织研究。该项目将推进以股权为中心的网络人类系统和信息学研究，重点关注美国西南部的机构。通过区域会议，它将汇集来自少数派服务机构（MSI）和研究密集型机构的有抱负的研究人员，以确定促进以股权为中心的研究的优势，需求和策略。通过探索区域见解和建立协作模型，该项目旨在增强西南部MSIS的研究能力，并促进国家科学基金会CIES-MSI计划的目标。该项目将利用团队科学的原则和策略来组织社区建设活动，并为来自西南四个州的有抱负和早期职业研究人员举行的区域会议：亚利桑那州，加利福尼亚州，新墨西哥州和德克萨斯州。为期两天的工作会议将重点介绍（1）确定与计算和信息学研究有关的机构和个人优势和需求，（2）以股权为中心的主题，包括公平，道德，责任感，责任感，透明度和社会正义，以及（3）促进本科研究的策略。 In addition to potentially increasing the number and quality of research proposals from MSIs to the National Science Foundation, the project will demonstrate the practical application of team science principles for community building and identify models of inter- and intra-institutional collaboration that support research expansion and innovation at MSIs in the Southwest.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review 标准。
