On April 13, the U.S. Department of Energy announced that proposals are now being accepted for the Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) program, which supports high-impact scientific advances through the use of the DOE Leadership Computing Facilities located at Argonne and Oakridge National Laboratories. By providing some of the world's most powerful supercomputing resources, INCITE enables researchers to address some of the toughest challenges in science and engineering. Researchers are currently using this supercomputing time to generate complex simulations to accelerate discoveries in key areas such as climate change, alternative energy, biology, and materials sciences.

More details about the INCITE 2012 call for proposals can be found on the DOE website at http://hpc.science.doe.gov/. Please direct questions about the application procedure to the INCITE manager at INCITE@DOEleadershipcomputing.org.
