GENERAL INFORMATION
What type of projects and PIs will the NSF TRAILBLAZER Impact Award (TRAILBLAZER) support?
The NSF TRAILBLAZER Engineering Impact Award Program will only accept single Principal Investigator (PI) proposals to perform transformative research in engineering. The PI’s research expertise and track record of creativity, innovation, and collaboration will be leveraged to propose bold new research directions distinct from previous or current research and convene and lead an effective team to conduct the proposed research activities.
The TRAILBLAZER program will support groundbreaking research projects that seek to significantly advance engineering research and innovation beyond what is currently being done in engineering and beyond the PI’s recent and prior research activities. In the Project Description, PIs must describe how the proposed new research area involves the development of innovative approaches designed to evaluate unconventional hypotheses. “Projects that are extensions of the PI’s ongoing or

New research shows that a key regulatory enzyme inhibitor discovered in the laboratory of Bruce Hammock, Ph.D. can alleviate inflammation linked to health issues that are caused by a high-sugar diet. The study, conducted in a mouse model, show promise as a basis for developing treatments of gut barrier dysfunction caused by high sugar consumption in humans.
