Announcing the Recipients of the 2020 Award for Inclusion Research <\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

At Google, it is our ongoing goal to support faculty who are conducting innovative research that will have positive societal impact. As part of that goal, earlier this year we launched the Award for Inclusion Research<\/a> program, a global program that supports academic research in computing and technology addressing the needs of underrepresented populations. The Award for Inclusion Research program allows faculty and Google researchers an opportunity to partner on their research initiatives and build new and constructive long-term relationships.<\/p>\n

Awardees include:<\/p>\n

“Characterizing Energy Equity in the United States<\/i>”
\nDestenie Nock and Constantine Samaras (Carnegie Mellon University)<\/p>\n

CMU Scott Inst. states: “With the help of Google’s Project Sunroof, Destenie and Costa will “explore policy options for increasing energy equity in electricity, heating, and transportation during the transition to a decarbonized energy system under climate change.” ”<\/p>\n
