The University of Texas at Austin was awarded a $285,129 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences on September 1, 2021, with a completion date of August 31, 2024. The grant falls under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), which aims to promote progress in these fields and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through increasing knowledge and enhancing understanding of major problems.

Specifically, the University will conduct collaborative research to constrain fuzzy dark matter with cosmological simulations. Working with the NSF over a three-year period, the University is expected to leverage computational modeling to further scientific knowledge of dark matter, a key area of inquiry for the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program and the broader scientific community. The grant provides $285,129 in funding to support the University's research services toward addressing this important challenge.
