A new round of $17.35 million funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) will double the amount of NSF’s ChemMatCARS beam time available to researchers from around the globe. The grant was announced by the University of Chicago/Pritzker School on Engineering.

NSF’s ChemMatCARS is one of three sectors managed by the University of Chicago’s Center for Advanced Radiation Sources (CARS) that lets scientists who would not otherwise have access apply for beam time to advance their research.
