The grant, effective September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2025, will fund the development of an "Ultra-Compact X-Ray Free-Electron Laser for Ptychographic Tomography-Based Inspection". This research aims to advance scientific understanding and technological capabilities in areas such as quantum information science, advanced computing, and materials research - core focus areas for the Office of Science program. As a prime grantee, UCLA will leverage its research facilities, faculty expertise, and administrative capabilities to deliver this project. The university also holds a $261,694.92 indefinite delivery contract from the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide animal per diem services in support of VA medical research, demonstrating its extensive experience supporting federal initiatives through both contracts and grants.
