Nano- and Meso-structured Polymeric Materials and Composites

Due: May 1, 2025

$100,000

Description

Polymeric materials with multiphase morphologies on the nano (1-100 nm) and mesoscale (100-500 nm) offer exciting opportunities for high-end, multifunctional applications, as well as enabling never-before-realized materials with unique combinations of electrical, optical, and structural properties. Mesoscopic structure dominates physical properties ranging from toughness to optical clarity with examples in nature (Abalone shell) as well as synthetic (block-copolymer) systems. We are interested in tailoring the ultimate properties...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
