Funding for the NIH grant was made possible in part by federal stimulus funding through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. http://scienceworksforus.org/press-releases/members-of-congress-university-leaders-scientists-launch-scienceworksforus New Initiative Highlights Role of ARRA-Funded Research in America's Recovery and Revitalization http://stlouis.bizjournals.com/stlouis/stories/2009/10/19/daily30.html The research projects of 14 faculty members at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine in Springfield and Carbondale were awarded grants totaling nearly $2.61 million by the National Institutes of Health. http://news.siuc.edu/news/September09/092209tjc9080.html Southern Illinois University Carbondale is benefitting from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. More than $3.1 million in ARRA funds are going to researchers investigating everything from improved solar cells to genes and breast cancer treatments. The so-called "stimulus" money will also pay for summer camps for younger students interested in transportation infrastructure, and programs for young children from low-income backgrounds. "The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act has included unprecedented opportunities for researchers and scholars to attract funds from federal agencies to support their research and scholarly activities, and rebuild our campus infrastructure," said John A. Koropchak, vice chancellor for research and dean of the graduate school at SIUC. http://thesouthern.com/news/breaking/article_8e16a8c9-991d-5ddf-8f11-67fa0cdeea0f.html Southern Illinois University Carbondale has received $300,000 in federal stimulus funds to study carbon sequestration, U.S. Rep. Jerry Costello, D-Belleville, announced Wednesday. The money, a grant of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act from the U.S. Department of Energy, will be used for a carbon capture and sequestration research project entitled: Risk Assessment and monitoring of Stored CO2 in Organic Rocks under Non-Equilibrium Conditions. http://news.siuc.edu/news/September09/091409tjc9076.html The country's transportation system is its lifeline, and all too often taken for granted by everyone it serves. That's one reason faculty in the College of Engineering at Southern Illinois University Carbondale partnered with the state's transportation department to show school children what makes the transportation system work. http://news.siuc.edu/news/August09/081309par9121.html Reporters, photographers and camera crews are welcome to cover a field trip by 20 Metro East middle school students to the Illinois Department of Transportation District 8 office in Collinsville on Friday, Aug. 14. The field trip is part of a one-week Summer Transportation Institute hosted by Southern Illinois University Carbondale's Paul Simon Public Policy Institute, College of Applied Sciences and Arts, and College of Engineering. http://news.siuc.edu/news/July09/072209tjc9062.html Humans have dreamed for years of harnessing the power of the sun for clean, unlimited energy. And while scientists and engineers have had success, many problems with efficiency and reliability remain. A researcher at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, however, is investigating new materials that potentially could greatly increase solar cell efficiency and improve a host of existing technologies as well. http://www.science.doe.gov/grants/FAPN09-26.html http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-OD-09-009.html
