Bottom line
- This is DOE’s list of the first projects selected under the Genesis Mission funding announcement DE-FOA-0003612, posted July 22, 2026.
- The list has 278 rows, one for each principal investigator and project. 56 rows give a California address. The list gives no dollar amounts.
Background
The Genesis Mission is a federal program for AI in science, which the White House leads (NSF news AI Infrastructure Hubs (web)). The DOE Office of Science posts this list. Each row gives the principal investigator, the project title, the institution, and its city, state and ZIP code. The counts on this page are the library’s counts of the ZIP codes in the list.
Key claims
- “Energy Department announces first Genesis Mission projects to accelerate new era of AI-driven scientific discovery” (title, p. 1)
- “Announcement Number: DE-FOA-0003612” and “List Posted: 7/22/2026” (header, p. 1)
- “Selection for award negotiations is not a commitment by DOE to issue an award or provide funding.” (header, p. 1)
- “Agapie, Theodor”, “AI-Enabled Electrochemical Refinery”, “California Institute of Technology”, “Pasadena CA 91125-0001” (row, p. 1)
- “Almgren, Ann”, “ASPIRE: ARM-driven Simulation for Physical Insight Research Engine”, “Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL)”, “Berkeley CA 94720-8099” (row, p. 1)
Evidence and method
An official federal selection list. It gives names, titles and addresses only. The California rows include University of California campuses, Stanford University and the California Institute of Technology. They also include Lawrence Berkeley, Lawrence Livermore and SLAC national laboratories, and private companies. New York has 25 rows, Washington 18, New Mexico 13 and Texas 12.
The total agrees with UC Regents B4 Update on AI 2026-09-16, which says UC investigators lead “40 of the 278 projects”.
Limits
The list gives no award amounts, no project dates and no description of the projects. A selection is not yet an award. The list does not say which projects use DOE compute. The Markdown copy breaks many rows across lines; read the original for each row.
