The Young Faculty Award 2007 (YFA)

Program Manager: Dr. Thomas Kenny

The Young Faculty Award (YFA) program is designed to seek out ideas from non-tenured faculty in order to identify the next generation of researchers working in microsystem technology. The funded researchers will focus on concepts that are innovative, speculative, and high-risk. DARPA expects that the innovations researched under the YFA program will assist in identifying new areas of research that are sufficiently important and challenging to warrant additional DARPA programs. DARPA’s Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) sponsors the YFA program
