We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Organic Poly Redox Arrays @ University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
With this award the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry program supports the work of Dr. Silas C. Blackstock in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Alabama Tuscaloosa. The work involves the synthesis and study of macromolecular organic poly redox arrays involving spin alignment in new non-Kekule pi-systems, and charge transport along redox chains. Medium effects on the energy ordering of the polyradical ion spin states will also be determined. Parallel work will investigate charge transport in new dendridic poly redox structures with radial redox gradients.
Poly radicals, organic compounds with two or more unpaired electron spins, will be studied using electrochemistry, nuclear magnetic resonance, electron spin resonance, and theoretical computations, looking for interesting electrical and magnetic properties. Dendrimeric structures with redox active elements that change as one goes from the center to the periphery are expected to behave as charge funnel devices, and have a potential use as novel charge storage nano-components in redox-imaging media. The work is expected to provide valuable training for students in synthesis, instrumental measurements, and chemical computation.

Purchase of a Departmental Nanosecond Transient Absorption Spectrometer @ University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
With support from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program, the Department of Chemistry at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa will acquire a nanosecond transient absorption spectrometer. Research will focus on photoinduced electron transfer studies, including a) measurement of electron transfer rates in redox-gradient dendrimers; b) use of fast spectroscopy to understand the phylloquinone cofactor in Photosystem I; and c) investigations of photochemistry in novel chromophores for optical data storage.
Transient absorption spectroscopy is an extremely versatile tool that can be used to probe fundamental photophysical and photochemical processes. These studies will have an impact in a number of areas including materials science and biochemistry.
