Invitation to Convocation, Sept. 24

Posted on by | Leave a reply

Dear Faculty and Staff,

I am writing to invite you to attend the 2024 New Student Convocation ceremony on Tuesday, Sept. 24, in Gill Coliseum. 

Convocation is a vital part of OSUWelcome 2024, a set of activities and events to help incoming Corvallis and Ecampus students connect with the university and kick off their college education. The event also recognizes students studying at OSU-Cascades and through our partnership with Eastern Oregon University, and OSU-Cascades holds a separate convocation ceremony for students joining the Bend campus.

Convocation serves as the official induction of new undergraduate students into the OSU academic and social community and is designed to mirror many aspects of Commencement. At its heart, Convocation is about formally introducing new students to the faculty and staff of Oregon State University and inspiring them to aim high in pursuing their academic goals. Your attendance emphasizes to students that they are being welcomed into a larger community working together in research, education and public engagement. This year’s event will include a welcome by President Jayathi Y. Murthy and remarks from ASOSU President Audrey Schlotter.

Students will assemble with their respective colleges in the Memorial Union Quad at 2:15 p.m., and then process to Gill Coliseum at 3:00 p.m. The Convocation Ceremony will be held in Gill Coliseum at 3:30 p.m. The ceremony will be streamed on live.oregonstate.edu. 


We encourage you to remind students to participate and walk with them to the MU Quad at 2:15 p.m. to gather. You are welcome to join other faculty, staff, and returning students lined up along 26th Street to cheer on students during the processional. 

You do not need to RSVP to attend Convocation. The platform party will be wearing regalia and, although not required, we invite faculty to do so as well. 

If you have any questions regarding this event, please email the Office of the Provost. 

I look forward to seeing you at Convocation.

Edward Feser

Provost and Executive Vice President

Funding opportunities with less than 10 applications: Deadline September 30th

Posted on by | Leave a reply

I’m reaching out regarding these five active industry partnership opportunities that have received less than 10 applications from researchers. Given the low application number, these calls are likely to increase the chance that your researchers would have in securing a partnership and funding.

Could you kindly share these with anyone at your university who may have an interest in applying?

Private Company: Fast-acting treatments for ingrown hair prevention and relief

A consumer goods company is looking for innovative solutions that address ingrown hairs. The primary focus is on finding faster alternatives to current treatment methods. They are open to all application methods, including topical, oral, and other novel approaches. The ideal solution should offer quick and effective relief from the symptoms of ingrown hairs while also preventing their occurrence. Selected applicants will be provided funding, company data, expertise, and have access to the company’s facilities and services. The deadline to apply is September 30th. You can read more about the project call here.

Private Company: Non-odorous topical formulations for hair removal
A consumer goods company is seeking innovative solutions to develop the next-generation hair removal topical formulation that eliminates the unpleasant odor associated with current depilatory products. Specifically, they are looking for an alternative to thioglycolic acid that is both effective and non-malodorous. As an alternative, they are also interested in technologies for odor control that can mask the unpleasant smell inherent in current depilatory products, which becomes more pronounced during the hair removal process. Ideally, this new active compound or formulation should be easy to use, allowing users to apply it and continue with their activities without discomfort or lingering odors. It would also ideally offer an added skin care benefit, such as moisturization or soothing. Selected applicants will be provided funding, company data, expertise, and have access to the company’s facilities and services. The deadline to apply is September 30th. You can read more about the project call here.

Tata Steel: Air quality and noise reduction in an industrial laboratory

Tata Steel is looking to collaborate with global experts to explore solutions to reduce noise levels (<60 dB) and contain fugitive emissions for easier collection and removal. Selected applicants will be provided funding, company data, expertise, and have access to the company’s facilities and services. The deadline to apply is September 30th. You can read more about the project call here.

Private Company: Material and process improvements for eliminating metal particulates in fibre drum production

A manufacturing company is looking for technologies to either modify the materials used for chimes or to improve or replace the methods of production, such as precurling/hemming and mechanical crimping, to help eliminate the production of debris in the manufacturing process or prevent the debris from entering into the packaging. Up to $100,000 USD in funding provided in increments based on the achievement of specific milestones and progress checkpoints.The deadline to apply is September 30th. You can read more about the project call here.

Corteva: Scalable and cost-effective mono-hydroxylation of relevant process chemistry building blocks

Corteva is seeking short, non-confidential proposals that describe a plan for a scalable, selective and cost-effective process for mono-hydroxylation of readily synthetic building blocks (visual is included on project call page). Proposals should include: 1) Detailed method or plan on how we can develop and implement the process ; 2) Relevant literature or industrial application references; 3) A high-level cost estimate; and 4) A proposed development timeline. Submissions should exclude any proprietary and confidential information such as specific reagents, process conditions, specific enzymes and/or sequences. Up to $100,000 USD in funding is available, inclusive of indirect costs. There are opportunities for extended collaboration and additional funding if successful. The deadline to apply is September 30th. You can read more about the project call here.

Sustainable Future Grant Program: Submission Deadline September 20, 2024

Posted on by | Leave a reply

In 2022, the ACS launched the ACS Campaign for a Sustainable Future to advance chemistry innovations in addressing the challenges articulated in the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (U.N. SDGs). This multifaceted initiative will have lasting impacts on how we conduct research, how we teach chemistry, and how we collaborate globally. One of the key initiatives of the Campaign is the Sustainable Futures Initiative Grant Program (SFIGP) which provides catalytic funding for early and mid-career faculty interested in developing a research and teaching portfolio that contributes directly to developing transformative chemistries that address the U.N. SDGs.

In our inaugural 2023 competition, $1 million in funding was awarded in two grant competitions administered through the SFIGP: 

  1. Early Career Postdoctoral-Faculty Bridge Grant – $125,000 in funding for an early career researcher to hire a postdoctoral fellow (PDF), who, together, can launch a new research lab in green chemistry and engineering. The competition is open to current PDFs with aspirations for a career in academia, and to professors within the first nine months of a faculty position. Applicants of both types must come from U.S. Ph.D.-granting universities.
  2. Principal Investigator Development in Sustainability Grant – $50,000 in funding to a professor at a U.S. Ph.D.-granting university to conduct their sabbatical leave at a private company, a national laboratory, or an academic laboratory in a different institution, with the goal of establishing robust collaborations across industry-academia or across disciplines.

The SFIGP aims for high-impact research, with a commitment to enhancing green chemistry and engineering education. Over $1 million in funding will be available for the 2024 competition. Submission for applications opened on July 15, 2024 and will close on September 20, 2024. 

Note: You can apply for both the PRF grants and the grants within the SFIGP. For more information, please contact sustainabilitygrants@acs.org .  Please do not hesitate to forward this email to colleagues.
