The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) awarded a $250,000 Young Faculty Award (CFDA 12.910 - Research and Technology Development) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to conduct innovative research with potential military and national security applications.
The project aims to develop revolutionary new technologies and capabilities through fundamental scientific research across diverse domains including artificial intelligence, quantum computing, biotechnology, and advanced materials. The University of Minnesota was selected as the prime awardee and will serve as the lead institution, potentially issuing a $146,000 sub-award to Florida State University to investigate ultralightweight nanophotonic radiators for thermal management. This research is expected to enable transformative advancements in areas of strategic interest to the Department of Defense.
