How NSF's Materials Research Facilities Network helps bolster the field of materials science and engineering

Materials research can be complex and expensive, and often researchers need the latest technology and equipment to carry out experiments. Not all universities have the resources to house that kind of technology, however, and it was with this challenge in mind that NSF's Materials Science Research and Engineering Center (MRSEC) program launched the Materials Research Facilities Network in 2007. Learn more about MRFN and how it helps bolster the field of materials science and engineering.
