- This $100,608 Project Grant was awarded on August 15, 2025 by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The project investigates the relationships between human activities, place attachments, and environmental factors, with the goal of developing a generalized theory on how external pressures influence attachment to places. The research utilizes a mixed-methods approach, including mapping geographic patterns of human...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Directorate for Engineering (CFDA 47.041) supports a multi-year, $100,000 research project titled "SAI: Healthy and Equitable Public Spaces - Strengthening American Infrastructure." The project aims to identify features of urban public spaces that promote psychological restoration and well-being, and to develop evidence-based design standards for creating healthier and more equitable public spaces. The research team...
- This $540,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) aims to introduce a new class of intelligent, dynamic built environments that continuously interact with occupants to monitor, interpret, and respond to their mental states. The goal is to create responsive, adaptive workspaces that can minimize distractions and enhance sustained focus, thereby alleviating mental strain and promoting cognitive well-being and productivity. The 3-year...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Social and Economic Science awarded a $117,721 Project Grant to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) to support the "Collaborative Research: Science with the People" project. This two-year grant, funded under the CFDA 47.075 Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program, will enable residents to analyze government health data to document and examine patterns of health and well-being in their...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $106,000 to the Research Foundation of the City University of New York (RFCUNY) to conduct research on designing smart environments to enhance collective learning and creativity. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award include: Developing large-scale online experiments and computational models to investigate how technological...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will provide $150,000 to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia to analyze how research centers influence scientific collaboration across U.S. universities. The project aims to map center affiliations, classify centers by their founding collaboration structures, and use natural experiments to estimate the causal effects of center affiliation...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $359,208 project grant to Michigan State University under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The grant will fund the "Mapping Informal and Alternative Housing in the United States: A Big Data Approach for Examining Spatial Inequality" project from August 2021 through July 2024. The project aims to examine the proliferation of informal and alternative housing in the U.S., and how this relates to uneven spatial...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program totaling $246,455 will fund research examining socio-technical practices governing the design, manufacture, and distribution of emerging digital technologies. Specifically, the two-year award to the University of Massachusetts will support multi-sited ethnographic research and analyses exploring how entrepreneurs, manufacturers, and investors are actively building and circulating...
This $349,703 National Science Foundation project grant supports research examining how spaces become meaningful places within shared indoor environments. Funded under the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the four-year award to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University will analyze space and resource use dynamics within a mixed residential/academic building. Using sensor technologies, interviews, and ethnography, researchers will study how administrators and designers conceptualize and distribute resources. They will also examine how diverse occupants attach meanings to and respond to disruptions in resource use patterns. The results aim to help create more human-centric indoor spaces that better facilitate positive outcomes. The project also supports interdisciplinary student training in science.
