To utilize the Alabama EPSCoR Research Capabilities Map/Database first select a research priority or a research institution from one of the drop down menus.

Research priorities are organized in three tiers- primary, secondary, and tertiary. There are eleven primary research priorities to choose from, see the drop down menu for a selection, then drill down for a detailed list and points-of-contact.

Alabama’s research institutions are listed in alphabetical order. Select an institution for points- of-contact and/or to view all of the research capabilities of that institution.
