Learn about NSF Partnerships for Innovation program
A National Science Foundation program officer will talk about the group’s Partnerships for Innovation program during an online meeting for faculty researchers this month.
Debora Rodrigues, professor of environmental engineering at the University of Houston, will host a conversation 1:30-2:30 p.m. April 25 on Zoom. Participants can register here. Contact Jia Liu, associate professor in the School of Civil, Environmental and Infrastructure Engineering, at jialiu@siu.edu with questions.
Currently serving as NSF’s rotating program officer for PFI, Mid-Career Advancement (MCA), and Bioinspired programs, Rodrigues is a highly accomplished researcher in the water-energy nexus field. Her transformative interdisciplinary research has led to new, alternative water treatment and membrane desalination technologies.
