What is BRII?
The Berkeley Research Impact Initiative (BRII) supports faculty members who want to make their journal articles free to all readers immediately upon publication. An 18-month pilot program, BRII will subsidize, in various degrees, fees charged to authors who select open access or paid access publication. The pilot will also yield data that can be used to gauge faculty interest in — as well as the budgetary impacts of — these new modes of scholarly communication on the Berkeley campus.

Open Innovation Challenges
In our Open Innovation Marketplace, we have Challenges in a wide variety of disciplines, from Business and Entrepreneurship to Engineering and Life Sciences
Solve any of our Challenges to win awards from $5,000 to $1,000,000. Challenges are posted by Seekers (corporations, government agencies, and nonprofit organizations) who are looking for your help with product development and other business and science problems.
You can use your knowledge and expertise to make a real difference. In addition to listing our Challenges by discipline, our Innovation Pavilions organize Challenges around specific causes or global issues:
* The Rockefeller Foundation
* Clean Tech and Renewable Energy
* Global Health
* Public Policy and Citizens in Action
Each Challenge has a significant cash award associated with it and Solvers have been earning money since 2001 - here's a list of our winning solvers.

Ontologists at UB are involved in collaborative ventures with leading national and international institutions. They have received major funding for ontology-related projects from the NSF, NIH, US and Canadian defense agencies and defense industries, and from the European Union.
Goals BCOR is designed to provide a forum within which philosophical ontologists and those involved in ontology applications can work together in high-level interdisciplinary research. It serves the coordination and integration of a range of ontological projects currently being pursued in Buffalo.

Microsoft Research announced the twelve recipients of the Microsoft Live Labs: Accelerating Search in Academic Research 2006 RFP awards, totaling $500,000 (USD) in funding. The objective of this RFP is to support Live Labs’ collaboration with the academic research community and is focused on the Internet Search research area. Specifically, this RFP directly addresses the need for more large-scale data by making additional real world search data available to academia. In doing so, Microsoft seeks to further encourage academic research and innovation in search by increasing the availability of relevant, large, and current data sets from MSN Search, new data analysis and algorithm development in Internet Search will be supported.

If cited webreferences in journal articles, books etc. are not archived, future readers may encounter a "404 File Not Found" error when clicking on a cited URL. Try it! Archive a URL here. It's free and takes only 30 seconds.
A WebCite®-enhanced reference is a reference which contains - in addition to the original live URL (which can and probably will disappear in the future, or its content may change) - a link to an archived copy of the material, exactly as the citing author saw it when he accessed the cited material.
