Collaborative Research: Are Amazonian and Andean ecosystems close to a tipping point?
Amazonian rainforests are famous for the immense biological and cultural diversity they support. These forests are also a vital part of global recycling of freshwater, and their lo...
Bosonic Condensation and Emergent Phenomena in 2D Janus layers and Moiré Lattices
Non-Technical AbstractRecently discovered Janus materials are a new class of ultra-thin crystals. Here, the name ''Janus'' comes from the ancient Roman God of b...
Emergent Opto-Mechanical and Electro-Mechanical Coupled Behavior of Halide Perovskites
Nontechnical DescriptionSo-called ‘halide perovskites’ are a family of materials at the heart of a new type of solar-cell technology. These new solar cells are showing great promis...
Collaborative Research: phyloregion, computational infrastructure for biogeographic regionalization and macroecology in the R computing environment
Establishing geographical comparisons based on shared biota is crucial to the study of biogeography and for managing biological diversity in the face of rapid warming of the Earth’...
RUI: Phenazine Chemistry as a Means of Assembling Multifunctional Pi-conjugated Organic Materials.
With the support of the Macromolecular, Supramolecular and Nanochemistry program in the Division of Chemistry, Dr. Brian H. Northrop of Wesleyan University will develop new synthet...
PFI-TT: Energy-Efficient Smart-Privacy Windows made of Dynamic Crystals

Collaborative Research: CNS Medium: Systems Foundations for Battery-free Body Area Intelligence and Sensing
An exciting new paradigm for wearable health sensors is one where sensors and batteries need not be integrated within the same device. This project seeks to realize this vision by...
Collaborative Research: NSFGEO-NERC--Coupled Tropospheric Reactive Halogen Chemistry in the Subtropical Marine Boundary Layer
This is a project that is jointly funded by the National Science Foundation’s Directorate of Geosciences (NSF/GEO) and the National Environment Research Council (UKRI/NERC) of the...
Cluster Algebras, Combinatorics, and Knot Theory
The theory of cluster algebras is a young research area in mathematics that was set in motion by Fomin and Zelevinsky in 2002. Their original motivation came from representation th...
Questions in Arithmetic Combinatorics
The project focuses on two of the most accessible areas of mathematical research: combinatorics and number theory. Generally and broadly speaking, combinatorics focuses on counting...
Collaborative Research: Discovering Precipitation Pathways in Reactive Magnesium Oxide Cements via Nanoscale Interfacial Engineering for Durable Structural Composites
This collaborative research is focused on investigating and discovering magnesium oxide-based cement materials with strong mechanical properties for sustainable construction of civ...
CAS: Dinuclear Metallacycles as Intermediates in Catalysis
With the support of the Chemical Catalysis program in the Division of Chemistry, Dr. Christopher Uyeda of Purdue University is studying catalytic reactions that will improve the ef...
Decoupling of DNA unwinding and synthesis in the replisome induces genome instability
The long-held textbook viewpoint on DNA replication is that the replisome is a stable multiprotein complex assembly that seamlessly coordinates coupled synthesis on the leading and...
Practicing Self-Regulation of Cognition and Motivation during Problem Solving in Engineering and Mathematics
This project aims to serve the national interest by enhancing undergraduate students' problem-solving skills in engineering and mathematics. To do so, the project will develop...
I-Corps: Process for upcycling plastic waste into a building material
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is to provide an alternative to carbon-intensive construction materials by upcycling waste plastics into building pr...
