Congratulations to Dr. Anna-Maria Marshall for being awarded an NSF $25 million grant that supports transdisciplinary research!

Please join me in congratulating Dr. Anna-Maria Marshall, who is a co-PI at the Science and Technology Center – the “Science and Technologies for Phosphorus Sustainability Center” – and they've been awarded an NSF $25 million grant that supports transdisciplinary research on making phosphorus more sustainable. Anna will be doing research on adoption and diffusion of new technologies, methods of stakeholder engagement, and finding policy to support innovative technologies promoting sustainability.

Here’s a brief description of the Center:

 NSF Science and Technologies for Phosphorus Sustainability Center will accelerate fundamental scientific discoveries and the development of novel and sustainable technologies and practices to control, recover, reuse and manage phosphorus. The center will use a convergence research approach to integrate highly disparate disciplines across the physical, life, social and economic sciences, while training students to tackle highly complex problems. The center is led by a team of researchers from North Carolina State University; Arizona State University; University of Florida; RTI International; Appalachian State University; Marquette University; University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; North Carolina A&T State University; and UNC Greensboro.

Congratulations Dr. Marshall!
