Call for White Papers
Your research can help solve mission-oriented challenges faced by the intelligence community.
Each summer, the Laboratory for Analytic Sciences (LAS) kicks off the annual planning cycle by releasing a call for white papers. Academic and industry researchers are invited to submit one or more research project ideas. The call for white papers is based on continuing LAS research interests and discussions with U.S. Intelligence Community partners about mission needs. The call for white papers provides examples of technical areas and applications of interest for LAS.
LAS is a mission-oriented academic-industry-government research collaboration that works at the intersection of technology and tradecraft. We apply unclassified examples from academic and commercial partners to intelligence community goals. Collaborators selected for project funding will work with LAS staff to deliver mission-relevant solutions to better support today’s intelligence analysts.
NC State staff will hold a question-and-answer session to answer logistical and technical questions about the call for white papers and potential work with LAS.
