Clarkson physics professor receives award from National Science Foundation

Posted

POTSDAM -- Professor Maria Gracheva of the Clarkson University Department of Physics has received a CAREER (Coupling nanoscale device modeling with course-grained biomolecular simulations) award from the National Science Foundation to perform research on computational models of solid-state devices for biomolecular sensing and detection.

She will receive $400,000 over five years from the NSF for her research.

"This award is a huge mark of approval from the scientific community," she said. "I am honored and excited to receive it."

Gracheva's research focuses on the computer simulation of nanoscale electrically tunable solid state devices for biomolecular sensing, detection and manipulation, Clarkson said.
