Multiuniversity Partnership Receives $23 Million NSF Grant to Accelerate U.S. Research on Glycomaterials
To accelerate complex glycomaterials research in the U.S., the National Science Foundation (NSF) has committed $23 million to a new multiuniversity partnership, led by Virginia Tech.
The partnership will bring together leading scientists and engineers from Virginia Tech, the University of Georgia, Brandeis University, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to establish an NSF Materials Innovation Platform called GlycoMIP focused on “Automating the Synthesis of Rationally Designed Glycomaterials.”
