The Department of Energy's Office of Science awarded a $581,755 project grant to James Madison University (JMU) under the Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049) to conduct research on "Elucidating Oxophilic Pathways of Enhanced Epoxidation Reactions by Optimization of Ag Assemblies on Bifunctional Copper-Based Catalyst." This 1-year award, effective February 1, 2025, will support JMU's fundamental scientific research to explore complex challenges in materials science and catalysis. The project aims to advance understanding of chemical reaction pathways and develop innovative catalyst technologies that could enhance epoxidation processes, which have applications in fields such as energy and environmental science. As a public research university, JMU will leverage its expertise in chemistry, physics, and engineering to deliver on this award, which is part of the Office of Science's broader efforts to fund transformative scientific discoveries and technological capabilities that support U.S. energy, economic, and national security priorities.
