Carnegie Mellon University was awarded a $899,999 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation. The grant is part of NSF's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to support innovation and excellence in engineering research and education.
Under the award, Carnegie Mellon University will develop a shape annealing approach to DNA origami design. The research aims to improve DNA origami techniques for constructing nanoscale structures through a shape annealing methodology. The three-year project grant commenced on September 1, 2021 and is scheduled to conclude on August 31, 2024. The funding will support Carnegie Mellon University's efforts to advance engineering capabilities at the nanoscale through innovative DNA origami research.
