The Guest Researcher Association (GRA) is a voluntary group of international Guest Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). It was formed to help Guest Researchers, contractors, and other associates get the most out of their time at NIST and their stay in the United States. The GRA helps guest researchers by providing information as articles on many topics for/from people who are here, who are coming or who have already left.
