LSU’s College of Basic Sciences has received $7.6 million in research grants from the federal stimulus bill. The money has been spread amongst the LSU Museum of Natural History and all six departments at the university: biological sciences, chemistry, physics and astronomy, computer science, geology and mathematics. Biological sciences and chemistry accounted for $5.7 million of the total funding. “Our researchers have been extremely proactive in going out and securing external funding,” says Kevin Carman, dean of Basic Sciences. “In addition, several large proposals are still being considered by various federal funding agencies.”
