  <title><![CDATA[$3M NSF Investment Will Create New Semiconductor, 3D Printing Materials]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Researchers at Georgia Tech will work to develop new controllable materials for 3D printing, electronics made from plastics, and semiconductors that convert infrared light into electrical signals as part of the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) efforts to create advanced materials.</p><p>Altogether, the agency is <a href="https://new.nsf.gov/news/nsf-invests-72m-design-revolutionary-materials">investing $3 million in the three projects</a> led by faculty members in the <a href="https://me.gatech.edu/">George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering</a> (ME) and the <a href="https://mse.gatech.edu/">School of Materials Science and Engineering</a> (MSE). Georgia Tech is a contributing partner on a fourth project led by Notre Dame researchers to explore materials that can be <a href="https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=2324172">switched from an insulator to a metal with an external trigger</a>.</p><p>The new awards are part of NSF’s Designing Materials to Revolutionize and Engineer our Future (DMREF) program, which is intended to discover and create advanced materials twice as fast and at a fraction of the cost of traditional research methods.</p><p><a href="https://coe.gatech.edu/news/2023/10/3m-nsf-investment-will-create-new-semiconductor-3d-printing-materials"><strong>Read more about the researchers' plans on the College of Engineering website.</strong></a></p>]]></body>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
