3:15PM - 5:00PM:    Panel Session and Open Mic Q&A: Research Areas for Investigation, and Where the Dollars Are.

This session will bring together the audience and government funding agencies to explore fundamental challenges and focus areas for new research funding.  The goal for the panelist is to determine the relevancy of the challenges and potential new directions.  The goal for the audience will be to provide new concepts that could be turned into white papers for the community.

This final session is focused on new ideas that will come from the community.  To allow sufficient time for ideas to be vetted, there will be an open microphone session for participants to propose research ideas. Participants who want 2 minutes to outline their idea should provide their name and a paragraph describing the idea prior to the meeting, either on the website (http://www.knowledgebasednetworking.org/SubmitAnIdea.html) or at the door.
