The National Science Foundation Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems awarded a $351,285 Project Grant to Texas Tech University on September 1, 2021 for work completing August 31, 2024. The grant supports the project "Designing Colloidosomes with Unjammed Interfaces" under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041). The project aims to improve the quality of life and economic strength of the nation by fostering innovation and excellence in engineering research. Specifically, it will enable the design of colloidosome particles with optimized interfaces lacking jammed structures to potentially advance applications in drug delivery, catalysis and separations. Work is being conducted at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas and will explore engineering approaches to control colloidosome assembly at the microscale.
