Dear Colleagues, Yesterday at the SLAC LCD meeting, Uriel Nauenberg pointed out that the deadline is fast approaching for 2001 proposals to the DOE's Advanced Detector Research program. This program is described at the web site http://doe-hep.hep.net/adr_2002.html Letter of intent are due on Sept. 25, and the actual proposals are due Oct. 30. In the year 2000, six grants were made under this program. The topics are interesting for high lumnosity hadron collider and flavor physics experiments. However, there are important detector R&D projects that need to be carried out by the linear collider community, on topics such as thinned CCD's and highly segmented calorimetry in strong magnetic fields. If funding is available, it is a shame not to go after it. Please have a look at this web page and see if it is of potential use to your group.
