The 3-year award, effective November 1, 2023, will support research by Professor Jonathan L. Sessler and coworkers to investigate the influence of...
- The National Science Foundation awarded $212,092 under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049) to the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (Tees) of the Texas A&M University System for a two-year collaborative research project from December 2021 to November 2023. The project aims to advance biomaterials design through computational simulation and manipulation of intrinsically disordered proteins. Specifically, researchers will work to better...
- This $650,000 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemistry supports the research of Dr. Raphael Florentino Ribeiro of Emory University. The award, effective December 1, 2023 through November 30, 2028, aims to develop new theoretical approaches and computational methods for investigating chemical phenomena in microenvironments that confine light and interact strongly with matter. The research will computationally explore strategies to achieve...
- The National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program awarded a $600,000 Project Grant to Texas A&M University to study the development of complexes of late transition metals that contain boron-metal bonds, and the exploitation of the boron-metal synergy in selective transformations of nitrogen-containing organic molecules. The project aims to create new understanding of the overall reactivity and the role of Lewis-acidic boryl ligands in bond-breaking and...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), provides $213,504 to develop new tools for nanoscale chemical and biochemical sensing and imaging. Professor Lane Baker at Texas A&M University will construct new instruments using advanced signal processing and selective chemical and biological sensors to measure very small concentrations of ions, molecules, and proteins at subcellular scales....
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $250,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program to Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) and Bowling Green State University. The grant supports collaborative research by Professors Pavel Anzenbacher and Mark A. Olson to develop new molecular receptors that can recognize and bind biologically and pharmacologically relevant substances, and convert this recognition into a mechanical response that is visibly detectable. The research aims to advance the fundamental understanding of molecular recognition and shape changes upon binding, which can enable the development of new diagnostic tools and smart materials for health, chemical monitoring, and security applications. The project also provides educational opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students to participate in cutting-edge photochemistry experiments and receive mentorship in research. The grant period runs from September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2028.
