The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems awarded $549,292 through the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York on June 1, 2026, for a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) project titled "Advancing Understanding of Adsorption, Transport, and Interpenetration in Metal-Organic Frameworks with Pore Graphs." The five-year project, extending through May 31, 2031, will develop and deliver an integrated computational framework combining graph theory, molecular modeling, and machine learning to advance understanding of molecular motion and dynamics in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)—nanoporous materials with critical applications in chemical separations, energy storage, and water harvesting. The core deliverable is a novel "pore graph" mathematical representation that transforms complex pore networks and their chemistry into quantifiable objects, enabling more accurate prediction of adsorption thermodynamics, molecular transport behavior, and framework interpenetration phenomena. In addition to research products, the project includes substantial educational and workforce development deliverables designed to build artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) literacy across multiple educational levels. These include the creation of a new chemical engineering course emphasizing AI applications; development of summer workshops and an online professional education course in AI; establishment of summer camps for pre-college students; and partnership with a local high school to enhance AI literacy among high school students. These educational products are designed to prepare students and professionals for emerging roles in advanced computational materials science and AI-driven engineering design methodologies.Federal Grant Award Summary
