The Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) in the state of Kentucky will enhance the research competitiveness of approximately 64 faculty within 19 departments at three universities (University of Kentucky, University of Louisville, and Western Kentucky University). Research areas include: (1) Developing a Center for Evolutionary Ecology; (2) Biofunctional Membranes; (3) Structural Biology of Cellular Regulators; (4) Applications of Massively Parallel Computers; (5) Radiation, Turbulence, and Chemical Kinetics Interactions in Flames; (6) Inverse Problems and Quantitative Non-destructive Evaluation; (7) The Relationship Between Structure and Activity in Chemical Catalysis; Synthesis, Structure, and Function; (8) Local Approach to Study the Properties of Complex Systems with Low Symmetry; and (9) Preparation and Properties of Low- Dimensional Conductors and their Intercalates. The research clusters will serve over one hundred graduate, undergraduate, and post doctoral students. In addition, EPSCoR outreach activities are linked with the existing educational enrichment programs in the state in which cluster members are actively involved (e.g., the Southeastern Consortium for Minorities in Engineering at the University of Louisville; SuperQuest; and the Minority High School Research Apprenticeship Program). The State of Kentucky will contribute over $11 million in support of the EPSCoR initiative.

促进竞争研究的实验计划 （EPSCoR）将加强研究 在19年内约有64名教师的竞争力 三所大学的系（肯塔基州大学、 路易斯维尔大学和西肯塔基州大学）。 研究领域包括：（1）建立一个中心， 进化生态学;（2）生物功能膜;（3） 细胞调节因子的结构生物学;（4） 大规模并行计算机;（5）辐射、湍流和 火焰中的化学动力学相互作用;（6）反问题 和定量无损评价;（7） 化学结构与活性的关系 催化;合成，结构和功能;（8）局部 低浓度复杂系统性质的研究方法 对称性;（9）低- 三维导体及其夹层。 研究 集群将为100多名研究生，本科生， 和博士后学生。 此外，EPSCoR外联 活动与现有的丰富教育相联系 程序处于集群成员正在积极 涉及（例如，东南少数民族联盟 路易斯维尔大学工程学; SuperQuest;以及 少数民族高中研究学徒计划（Minority High School Research Apprenticeship Program） 肯塔基州将提供超过1100万美元， 支持EPSCoR倡议。
