There are a number of Early Career specific funding opportunities. You can find more about them by searching the Early Career Investigator Funding Opportunities page. Below is an archive celebrating the early career specific achievements of principal investigators at the University of New Mexico.
UNM Physics and Astronomy Assistant Professor, Victor Acosta, recently received an NSF CAREER award for the project: "CAREER: Picoliter Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy with Diamond Quantum Sensors." The award (#1945148) is jointly funded by NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CHE) and Engineering (CBET) divisions.
Professor Alejandro Manjavacas has been awarded a five-year NSF CAREER award for a project entitled Transfer of Momentum and Energy in the Nanoscale Using Quantum and Thermal Fluctuations. This unique project takes advantage of the quantum nature of the interaction of light and matter to develop possible new applications in nanotechnology. The work should point toward new ways of manipulating objects on the nanoscale, including in biological settings, as well as improvements in design of thermophotovoltaic devices and heat management in nanoelectronics.
Victor M. Acosta, Assistant Professor in Physics and Astronomy at the University of New Mexico has been selected as one of twenty-four 2019 Cottrell Scholars by the Research Corporation for Science Advancement (RCSA). The Cottrell Scholar (CS) program champions the very best early career teacher-scholars in chemistry, physics and astronomy by providing them with significant discretionary awards.
UNM associate professor of Computer Science Trilce Estrada was recently honored as the 2019 ACM SIGHPC Emerging Woman Leader in Technical Computing award winner at the recent International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis (SC19), the world’s premier high-performance computing conference, in Denver.
Electrical and Computer Engineering Assistant Professor Eirini Eleni Tsiropoulou was recently awarded a CISE Research Initiation Initiative grant from the National Science Foundation. The goal of this program is to contribute to the growth and development of future generations of scientists and engineers who will dedicate their careers to advancing research and education in the areas that CISE funds, and specifically to assist those investigators who do not have adequate organizational or other means of support to pursue their early-career research.
