I/UCRC Grantee Research Highlights
Please tell us about your latest research. Results from research are important for NSF funding
as it allows us to demonstrate the viability of our programs. Please complete this template and
email it to glarsen@nsf.gov and
rdasgupt@nsf.gov. We want to hear about your research
results even though your research may have ended years before the highlight was realized. Do not
use future tense; we need to know results and not plans. Highlights are intended for the general
public, congress, and journalists so try to refrain from technical terms if possible and write
for a layman audience.
