The University of Mississippi received a $244,096 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Integrative Activities (IA) program. The grant, titled "RII TRACK-4:NSF: INTEGRATED ELECTROCHEMICAL-OPTICAL MICROSCOPY FOR HIGH THROUGHPUT SCREENING OF ELECTROCATALYSTS", aims to develop a correlated electrochemical-optical microscope to enable high-throughput screening of individual electrocatalysts. This innovative approach will address limitations of traditional electrochemical methods by providing more granular insights into electrocatalyst performance and mechanisms. The project will train graduate and undergraduate students, particularly from minority-serving institutions in Mississippi, in advanced characterization and nanofabrication techniques. The University will also engage K-12 students through outreach activities to encourage STEM pursuits. This award reflects NSF's focus on building research capacity, advancing critical technologies, and broadening participation in STEM fields.
