- Regents of the University of California at Riverside was awarded $540,000 under a three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The grant will support research into developing new biomimetic chemical structures that can mimic the behavior of large biomolecules like enzymes. Specifically, Professor Richard Hooley and his team will work to create self-assembled cage complexes containing rigidly or flexibly positioned...
- The University of Miami and North Carolina State University will collaborate on research to develop a new class of synthetic fluorescent dyes for bioimaging applications under a three-year, $401,929 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry. The grant supports the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), which aims to increase scientific knowledge and understanding in these fields. Specifically, the universities will work to engineer...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $577,656 Project Grant to Miami University to investigate the structural and dynamic properties of two membrane proteins, Pinholin and gp28, using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopic techniques. The grant, funded through NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, will enable Professor Gary A. Lorigan and his team to elucidate the secondary and tertiary structure of these membrane-bound proteins and develop...
- This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), supports a collaborative research effort led by Professor Pavel Anzenbacher of Bowling Green State University and Professor Mark A. Olson of Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. The $350,000 project aims to transform simple one-dimensional molecules into complex three-dimensional structures that function as chemical sensors, with the goal...
- This $450,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Mathematical and Physical Sciences supports research by Professor Gregory Friestad at the University of Iowa. The goal is to develop new methods to efficiently synthesize structurally complex small molecules from simple hydrocarbon precursors, with applications in medicinal and natural products chemistry. The project will leverage transition metal-catalyzed addition and epoxidation reactions to access...
- The University of Florida was awarded a $540,556 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049). The grant will fund the CAS-MNP: Dimetallic CO Homocoupling and Functionalization project from August 15, 2021 through July 31, 2024. The project aims to promote progress in the mathematical and physical sciences by increasing understanding of major problems through increasing the store of...
Miami University received a three-year $480,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049). The grant funds Professor C. Scott Hartley's research investigating methods to control the folding of non-biological molecules into complex three-dimensional structures. Specifically, the project studies the folding behaviors of ortho-arylene foldamers, focusing on ortho-phenylenes, to develop strategies for programming folding through attractive and repulsive interactions as well as cage structures. The research aims to provide new molecular folder systems for constructing fundamentally complex non-biological structures with applications in molecular recognition and catalysis. The funding supports graduate and undergraduate student training in synthetic and physical organic chemistry.
