WASHINGTON - Senator Chuck Grassley today said that the University of Iowa has received a $592,229 competitive grant from the National Science Foundation.
The University will use the money to fund the project, titled “Linking Molecular Scale Surface Speciation to Interfacial Fe Redox Chemistry.”
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.
