<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Planning for the next round of ARC LIEF (Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities) applications has begun, and, in order to ensure an appropriate balance between current commitments and possible new
projects, CSIRO is seeking Expressions of Interest from the community to lead prospective LIEF proposals. CSIRO is not able to lead LIEF projects, but is willing (within resource constraints) to partner with Universities on projects that will enhance the National
Facility for all users.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Expressions of Interest, in the form of a one-page outline of the project and an indication of potential contributions from partner institutions, should be emailed to Nic.Svenson@csiro.au by Tuesday 26 October.
EoIs will be considered by CSIRO, in consultation with the ATNF Users Committee, and by mid-November we will provide an initial assessment of which proposals CSIRO may be able to support. For further information please contact Tasso Tzioumis (Tasso.Tzioumis@csiro.au).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
