GEMADARC
Germanium Materials and Detectors Advancement Research Consortium
NSF PIRE
NSF Partnerships for International Research and Education Program
A global partnership funded by NSF (OISE 1743790) to advance germanium technologies for the search of dark matter, neutrinoless double-beta decay and other rare physics processes with world-class education and training opportunities.
Mission
- To advance knowledge, research and discovery in fundamental physics by developing novel detectors that will improve the sensitivity of ton-scale DM and neutrino experiments.
- To increase knowledge and advance frontier physics education and training for undergraduate STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) majors, graduate students, post-docs, and early career faculty, and develop a diverse workforce in physics and engineering.
- To improve global collaboration on Ge related technology through integrative global partnerships, anchored by best-in-class research facilities, resources, and expertise.
