Collaborative Research: EAGER: NAIRR Pilot: Demystifying the Black Box: Algorithm-Informed Neural Networks
Today's artificial intelligence (AI) systems are powerful but often operate as opaque "black boxes," making decisions without clear explanations. This lack of transp...
CAREER: Transport and collective behavior of microswimmers in porous media
This CAREER award will investigate how bacteria move in porous environments such as tissue, gels, soils, and sediment. Bacteria are examples of microswimmers, a class of particles...
Collaborative Research: Constraining virus loss and carbon and nitrogen flow through virovory in temperate marine ecosystems with isotope tracing and microbial food web models.
A quantitative understanding of the flow of nutrients and energy in marine ecosystems is critical to understanding and predict the availability of the resources that support food w...
Enhancing Piezoelectricity in Semicrystalline Ferroelectric Polymers via Electrostriction of the Oriented Amorphous Fraction
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY:Piezoelectric polymers are unique materials that generate electricity when they are compressed or stretched. Since their discovery in 1969, they have shown gr...
Collaborative Research: Investigation of Volcanism and Tectonics in the Bight Transform Region (55.5N-57.0N, Mid-Atlantic Ridge)
Volcanoes on the seafloor occur mostly along mid-ocean ridges or above mantle plumes like the Hawaiian Islands. Iceland is a great example of a place where ridges and plumes intera...
Collaborative Research: Electrochemical Ni-Catalyzed Reductive Biaryl Coupling: Mechanistic Studies to Enable Chemical Synthesis
With the support of the Chemical Catalysis program in the Division of Chemistry, Professors Daniel Weix and Shannon Stahl of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Professor Mohammad...
Conference: A meeting in Poisson Geometry
This NSF award will provide partial support for US participants to attend the conference "A meeting in Poisson Geometry", to take place March 6-9, 2025, on the campus of...
The dark side of the biological pump: the impact of iron availability on heterotrophic bacterial carbon consumption in the mesopelagic
Below the surface, in the ocean’s “twilight zone” – the water from roughly 150 to 600 meters deep – sinking organic matter from surface waters is consumed by bacteria. The more org...
Collaborative Research: INTEGRATION OF PLANT-SOIL FEEDBACKS WITH RESILIENCE THEORY FOR PINON WOODLANDS UNDER DROUGHT
Severe drought is causing trees to die around the world, including in the piñon-juniper woodlands that occupy hundreds of millions of hectares of the western US. Unfortunately, new...
Conference: SAIL 2025: Summit for AI Institutes Leadership, Reston VA October 21-23, 2025
This conference is the fourth annual program-wide meeting in the National AI Research Institutes Program. The Summit for AI Institutes Leadership (SAIL 2025) is an NSF-sponsored co...
Reprogramming plant responses to nitrate
Plants require nitrogen for growth. Agriculture has greatly benefited from the external application of nitrogen containing fertilizer, which is in large part responsible for curren...
IUCRC Planning Grant University of Michigan: Cyber and Terrorism Insurance Studies (CATIS) Center
The Cyber and Terrorism Insurance Studies (CATIS) Center addresses the growing risks posed by cyber threats and terrorism, which can cause devastating financial and operational dis...
Collaborative Research: Assessing Global Oxygen Inventory, Trends and Variability through the Intercomparison of Observation-based Gridded Datasets
Dissolved oxygen is essential for supporting life in marine habitats and for controlling the cycling of carbon and nutrients in the global ocean. Historical observations have shown...
FMSG: Eco: Solvent-Free Processing of Metal-Imidazolate EUV Photoresists for Semiconductor Manufacturing Guided by Machine Learning
Microelectronic device manufacturing for the production of computer chips depends on lithographic processes. Lithography enables creation of detailed patterns and features needed f...
REU Site: Undergraduate Research in Data Analytics (REU:URDA)
This award supports the creation of a new REU site at Marshall University focused on data science. Over a summer session, 30 undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds—includi...
Stochastic Thermodynamics: from active molecular pumps to chimera states
NONTECHNICAL SUMMARYThis award supports theoretical research and education to advance understanding of nonequilibrium systems using and further developing stochastic thermodynamics...
I-Corps: Translation Potential of Deep Learning-Based Multiscale Target Detection for Medical Device Manufacturing Quality Control
This I-Corps project is based on the development of a system that uses advanced artificial intelligence (AI) to improve quality control in medical device manufacturing. Traditional...
Last Mile Delivery
U.S. consumers have become accustomed to fast, inexpensive delivery directly to their doorstep. Yet few consider the work or the workers who are doing the deliveries. Parcel delive...
Conference: Methane Alert: What measurement framework is needed to monitor increasing natural methane emissions?
This award will fund a workshop in October, 2025 at the Aspen Global Change Institute to review the available fundamental science of increasing natural methane emissions and assess...
AF: Small: Parameterized Index Construction, Compression and Related Problems
The field of computing is central to scientific pursuit and has touched almost every area of science, technology and humanity. Computing has ushered us into a whole new era of poss...
