ONAMI gets $13.4 million
Abstract:
Oregon's first and largest signature research center will receive $13.4 million in research funding from the $487.7 billion defense appropriations bill recently passed by Congress.
The Oregon Nanoscience and Microtechnologies Institute, a collaborative effort between Oregon's four research universities and a national laboratory, was awarded funding for four separate research projects:
• $2.4 million for the ongoing development of miniature tactical energy systems, a collaboration led by Richard Peterson of Oregon State University and Landis Kannberg of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland, Wash.
• $4 million for research into safer nanomaterials and manufacturing, an effort led by Professor James Hutchison of University of Oregon
• $4 million for research into nanoelectronics and nanoscale metrology, led by Professor John Carruthers at Portland State University
• $3 million for research into nanoarchitecture for enhanced performance, a collaboration with the U.S. Army's research laboratory
