Vanderbilt University was awarded a $497,806 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041).

The grant will fund research from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024 on "DYNAMIC MOLECULAR SWITCHING FOR ENVIRONMENTALLY ADAPTIVE SURFACES." The NSF Engineering program seeks to improve quality of life and economic strength by fostering innovation and excellence in engineering research. This award will support Vanderbilt University's work in that area by developing new technologies for surfaces that can dynamically adapt to different environmental conditions using molecular switching mechanisms. The research will be conducted at Vanderbilt University's facilities in Nashville, Tennessee.
