DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:ABSTRACT: This session will describe current and future initiatives of the "Advanced Cyberinfrastructure Research and Education Facilitators (ACI-REFs)" program, a consortium that is forging a nationwide alliance of educators to empower local campus researchers to be more effective users of advanced cyberinfrastructure (ACI). The project engages the “long tail” of ACI users by building a coordinated network of ACI-REFs, computational scientists whose mission it is to leverage existing resources and “make a difference” in supporting their local campus researchers.=0A =0APanelists will present examples of successful strategies for supporting and working with researchers from disciplines that have not been traditional users of advanced cyberinfrastructure. The panel will bring together existing ACI-REFs, who will present ideas and best practices in how to engage these communities, and faculty researchers who have worked with the project and who will offer their perspective of the program and its potential to facilitate new knowledge discovery.
