And now, six Boston University researchers have received Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) awards from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to advance their work.
The prestigious, highly competitive NSF CAREER awards mark a significant achievement for early-career scientists and come with five years of continuous funding. All the researchers receiving funding this year are also laying the foundation for the next generation of scientists and diversifying their fields by supporting students and youth educational programs.
The Brink caught up with each of BU’s latest award winners to learn about their game-changing research.
