Broader Impacts MONET bolsters career readiness through:

Research translation and transition efforts resulting in patent filings and new sponsored research endeavors. Broader Impacts Innovation Research Translations MONET research is advancing toward translation via numerous pathways: Multiple patent filings and provisional patent applications stemming from Center work, including those involving MONET co-inventors from up to four institutions (JHU, MIT, Duke, UW) on a single invention. Competing for industry-sponsored research innovation awards that fund joint development. Spinning off successful projects into funding mechanisms (including a DOE Center and NSF DMREF award) that allow for a greater emphasis on promising areas of materials development. Funded industrial research projects that extend chemical approaches developed in MONET. REMAT DMR 2323315/6 Previous Next
