WASHINGTON – Senator Chuck Grassley said today that the U.S. Department of Energy has awarded a $130,000 grant to the University of Iowa.
According to the Department of Energy, the university will use the funds to study relativistic few-body hadronic-physics calculations.
Each year, thousands of local Iowa organizations, colleges and universities, individuals and state agencies apply for competitive grants and loans from the federal government. The funding is then awarded based on each local organization or individual’s ability to meet criteria set by the federal entity.
