WASHINGTON - Chuck Grassley today said that the University of Iowa will receive a $386,000 competitive grant from the National Science Foundation.
The University of Iowa will use the money to study flexible precursor strategies to new catalytic metal phosphide and phosphide-sulfide materials.
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.
