The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently announced 278 awards to 342 participating institutions to fund projects with the goal of accelerating a new era of AI-driven scientific breakthroughs in energy, discovery science, and national security.  

SSTI has mapped each of these Genesis Mission project awardees in Figure 1 below to provide a quick look at how these awards totaling up to $5 billion are geographically distributed. 

For more information on these awards, alongside those by the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Department of War (i.e., Department of Defense), and other items announced at the Genesis Mission summit, refer to this article from the previous issue of SSTI's Digest.
