In anticipation of the upcoming NSF call for , the Research & Innovation Office convened a process to engage all interested researchers in the university’s internal selection and proposal development process. Click here for the internal MRSEC call and competition details.

After an open campus-wide call for nominations for ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder’s next NSF MRSEC Director, Kristi Anseth has been selected as the Director and Tim White as the co-Director.

ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers

NSF MRSECs are comprised of two or three Interdisciplinary Research Groups (IRGs) per center and led by a single faculty member acting as MRSEC Director. While IRGs do not have to be thematically connected, the MRSEC Director must be able to articulate a vision for the integrated center. The MRSEC Director should be recognized as a national leader in the field and have the demonstrated ability to work with and develop an integrated team of researchers.

If you are interested in being engaged in MRSEC-related activities, please contact:   Kristi Anseth or    Tim White.
