Welcome to the January 2018 issue of the NITRD Leads IT quarterly newsletter of the Networking and Information Technology Research and Development Program. "The NITRD Program will be essential in helping our Nation achieve a brighter future through advances in information technology (IT). Evidence of this is seen in past Federal IT R&D, which led to technologies that help us today (e.g. the Internet, Global Positioning System, and smartphone assistants). Current Federal IT R&D is creating a world of personalized learning, personalized healthcare, and computers capable of answering any technical question... The U.S. government has a decades-long record of helping to achieve a brighter future with advanced IT through two roles: leading the world's IT advancement through aggressive funding of IT R&D, and leading the use of IT for social good, as evidenced by recent NITRD area strategic plans, which seek societal interests as well as technology advancement..." - Dr. Bryan Biegel (Director of the National Coordination Office for Networking and Information).

Welcome to the third issue of NITRD Leads IT, a quarterly newsletter of the Networking and Information Technology Research and Development Program.

Welcome to the second issue of NITRD Leads IT, a quarterly newsletter of the Networking and Information Technology Research and Development (NITRD) Program. I believe that NITRD helps make "awesome" happen because of the intelligence, creativity, and dedication of people, when thoughtfully applied to important challenges. This newsletter highlights examples of the giant leaps that NITRD helps enable. They started as big ideas by someone who was inspired to do more for their agency and our nation. If you have a bold idea about how NITRD can help advance agency missions and National priorities, we’d like to hear from you. We want to make amazing things happen! - Dr. Bryan Biegel (Director of the National Coordination Office for Networking and Information)

I am also reminded that new challenges and opportunities always lie ahead. One challenge and opportunity is particularly clear as I prepare to return to NASA: the need to purposefully move our innovations across the technology "valley of death" - the gap between positive research results and usable solutions that benefit our agencies and Nation..." - Dr. Bryan Biegel (Director of the National Coordination Office for Networking and Information).
