The IACR runs a wide range of research supporting and growth activities including networking events, seminars, regional collaboration activities, interdisciplinary & convergent “seed” funding programs, and more. The IACR’s Research group is led by Michael Puerrer and includes Abdeltawab Hendawi, Joan Peckham, Marco Alvarez, and Wenchao Ge.
The Institute does not have its own research agenda or program — rather it serves as a focal point for computational researchers at URI and in the region with the goal of strengthening research collaboration and networking.
Faculty researchers from across the university engage with the IACR in a wide variety of ways. A partial list of the affiliated faculty appears below.
