DUE #1303362). Project funds provide scholarships for undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students studying cyber security, in exchange for government service. Students are recruited from across Arizona, including from military bases, community college, and tribal colleges. The program asserts a special emphasis on minority recruitment and retention. Program components are described as including student mentoring and development, independent study and research, internship and post-graduation placement assistance, and program assessment and evaluation. The program is aimed at helping to fill expected federal vacancies in cyber security and related positions over the next 5 years. The Smart Health Project Chen has developed the "Smart Health" project in his Lab, which lists the following research objectives: (1) developing technical approaches to support cyber-enabled patient empowerment; (2) developing personalized healthcare and community mapping techniques; and (3) conducting theory-driven assessment and evaluation research. DiabeticLink research includes information extraction, sentiment analysis, and social network analysis to be integrated into the DiabeticLink portal. SilverLink is being developed in the U.S., China, and Taiwan to support senior citizens living independently. SilverLink's capabilities include a home-health system that monitors fall detection, daily health status, and activity levels, and can alert caregivers in the event of anomalous situations. Chen also founded Caduceus Intelligence Corporation (CIC), a UA spinoff company working in the area of healthcare information systems. CIC lists web analytics, smart health, patient support, and knowledge discovery as its areas of expertise. Data Infrastructure Building Blocks for Intelligence and Security Informatics As part of ongoing work in intelligence and security informatics, Chen was awarded over $1.4M from NSF for a three-year pilot demonstration project to make available data and analysis tools to serve information and cyber security researchers. The funds are to support the creation of an archive of open source and other data, such as network data, data from honeypots, hacker forums, phishing data, and security-related tweets, in numerous languages including English, Arabic, French, Russian, and more. The project is also intended to provide tools and support for social network analysis and data visualization. The project is intended to serve individuals working in "academia, government, and industry to share data, information, and expertise relevant to research in intelligence and security informatics." Awards He is a Fellow of ACM, IEEE and AAAS, and received the IEEE Computer Society Technical Achievement Award in 2006 and the INFORMS Design Science Award in 2008. A paper for which he was co-author was given
