The 53rd Research Conference on Communications, Information and Internet Policy (formerly TPRC) is taking place September 18-20, 2025, and ARNIC will have a strong presence. Prof. Hernan Galperin and Prof. Francois Bar are co-authors, along with doctoral students Alex Alvarado Rojas and Siyi Zhou, of a paper about the assessment of broadband affordability in areas targeted by the federal government for investments through BEAD (Broadband Equity Access and Deployment) program.

The paper is part of Phase 3 of the MEDIA (Measuring the Effectiveness of Digital Inclusion Approaches) program funded by The Pew Trust.
