Abstract

A workshop recognizing the 20th anniversary of the NSF/DOE Partnership in Basic Plasma Science and Engineering was held at NSF on January 9-11, 2017. The workshop demonstrated some of the remarkable research and broader impacts achieved with Partnership support. It provided an opportunity to reflect on the role of the Partnership in supporting plasma research and education, and as a model for interagency cooperation and agency responsiveness to community needs.
