This $652,363 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports capacity building and engagement activities for U.S. scientists conducting global change research through Future Earth. Future Earth will provide strategic communications, publications like the award-winning Anthropocene magazine, and convenings like the Sustainability Research and Innovation Congress to connect the global scientific community studying sustainability...

This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to investigate the behavior of moderately volatile elements during silicate evaporation, such as in tektites and volcanic glass from the moon. The $376,781 award to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has an expected completion date of December 31, 2027. The research aims to create a volatility scale ranking how easily different trace elements evaporate, and...

This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemistry, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) Federal Grant Program, will fund a collaborative research effort between the University of Florida and Johns Hopkins University to explore the underlying chemical reactions involved in two technologically important processes: focused electron beam-induced deposition (FEBID) and extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL). The $354,551 award will support...

This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences provides $125,000 in funding to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (New Mexico Tech) to investigate mechanisms leading to the degradation of redox flow batteries for grid-scale energy storage. The key products and services to be delivered under this 2-year grant include: Establishing "stress test" protocols to accelerate characterization of new redox...

The University Enterprises, Inc. dba Sacramento State Sponsored Research (Vendor) was awarded a $225,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Physics to support the "ELEMENTARY PARTICLE PHYSICS WITH THE ATLAS EXPERIMENT AT CERN'S LARGE HADRON COLLIDER" project. The award period is from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The project supports research under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). This program aims to promote...

This $292,130 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Loyola University of Chicago and the University of Connecticut to develop heavy atom-free photocatalysts for chemical reactions. The grant is funded through the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), which aims to strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through research in these fields. Specifically, the grant provides three years of funding until June 2026 for a collaborative research...

This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) provides $124,862 to the University of Rhode Island (URI) Research Office Division to advance the applications of organic photocatalysts in organic synthesis. Professor Lorenzo Mosca and his research group at URI will design and study fluorous (fluorine-containing) photocatalysts with improved resistance to photodegradation and enhanced recovery, enabling more...

This Project Grant award, valued at $281,066.00 and spanning from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2026, was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York. The primary objective of this award is to precisely quantify the carbon content and isotopic signature (δ13C) in the Earth's upper mantle. The research will involve two key activities: 1) conducting high-pressure/high-temperature experiments...

The National Science Foundation awarded $150,455 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York for a project grant ending January 31, 2025. The award will support research to develop diffusion models for major and trace elements in orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene, which are important mantle and crustal minerals. The project has three key tasks: theoretical and numerical modeling of cation diffusion across exsolution lamellae in...

The Jack London Society, Inc. received a $198,928 Project Grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) under the Promotion of the Humanities Research program (CFDA 45.161) for a collaborative scholarly editing project. The award, effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2027, supports the production of Volume 13 of "The Complete Works of Jack London," which comprises two works: "The Cruise of the Snark" (a nonfictional account of London's 1907–1909...
