The Office of the Vice President for Research is pleased to host:
Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSEC)
Seed Grant Networking Event
The Office of the Vice President for Research, the Office of the Provost, the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and the College of Arts and Sciences have announced a seed grant program to fund collaborative efforts between researchers at Stony Brook University seeking to apply to NSF’s Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSEC) program.
We anticipate the next MRSEC solicitation to be announced during the Fall 2024 time frame. In preparation for this, Stony Brook University is launching a campus-wide seed grant program to begin forming competitive Interdisciplinary Research Groups (IRGs). We hope for participation from researchers across all the colleges/schools on campus. To encourage this, the Office of Proposal Development will host this networking event to bring researchers together. Additionally, the NSF Program Directors of MRSEC encourage watching this recording of the DMR Open Hour from October 2023 for more background information.
