The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Materials Research awarded a $228,450 project grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York. This three-year grant, awarded under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), supports theoretical research and education aimed at understanding three key issues in active materials that are currently unexplored: The rheological properties and external stimulus response of active condensates. The interplay...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) totaling $630,000 aims to develop "synthetic life-like materials and machines" using light-responsive active fluids. The project at Brandeis University will pursue two complementary research aims: Embedding a rigid inclusion in a photo-responsive active nematic liquid crystal to implement hybrid theory-experiment feedback and control the targeted dynamics of the...
The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York received a $339,000 project grant award from the National Science Foundation on January 15, 2021 to support work under the RECONFIGURABLE ACTIVE MATTER project through December 31, 2023. The award falls under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), which aims to promote progress in these scientific fields and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through increasing knowledge and enhancing...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $298,911 Project Grant to New York University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049) to support collaborative research on water-responsive, shape-shifting supramolecular protein assemblies. Over a three-year period from August 2023 to July 2026, NYU will work with professors from New York University, CUNY Advanced Science Research Center, and CUNY City College to develop protein polymers that can respond to...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $575,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York. The grant supports a 3-year research project led by Professor Gerard Parkin to study the synthesis, structure, and reactivity of alkylperoxide, hydroperoxide, and fluoromethyl compounds of earth-abundant metals like magnesium, calcium, and zinc. This research aims to reduce the chemical industry's...
