The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) received a $400,000 project grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Information and Intelligent Systems on October 1, 2021. The award is part of the NSF's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to support collaborative research on computational design of complex fluidic systems through September 30, 2025.

Under the award, MIT researchers will work with NSF to advance development of computational tools and techniques for designing fluidic systems with complex behaviors. The research aims to enable more efficient engineering of microfluidic devices with applications in fields like biomedical diagnostics and environmental monitoring. Outcomes will include new design methodologies and an open-source software platform to simulate complex fluid flows at different scales. The four-year, $400,000 project grant provides funding for MIT staff and researchers to develop technologies with the potential to accelerate discovery and innovation in areas relevant to the NSF's program objectives.
