Optical/IR infrastructure priority setting process The Town Hall community meeting agreed that the "base" component of Gemini (i.e. the current 6.19% + Aspen program) is the community's highest priority, and that it should be wholly funded under NCRIS (i.e. without the LIEF or university contributions of the present arrangement). ... Infrastructure funded through NCRIS should serve the research and innovation system broadly, not just the host/funded institutions. ...
