MRFN Funding Available for NSL Users
Funding Available to use NSL for Eligible Applicants
The Center for Emergent Materials is a member of the Materials Research Facilities Network, a nationwide partnership of the Shared Experimental Facilities (SEFs) supported 
by the National Science Foundation’s Material Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSECs). CEM participates in the MRFN through support of NanoSystems Laboratory (NSL).
Funding support is available to cover NSL user fees and/or travel expenses to Ohio State for eligible applicants. Ideal applicants will be collaborators or come from local institutions that otherwise would not have access to comparable research instrumentation. To apply, submit a one to two page description of work and broader impacts to cem@osu.edu.
