The National Science Foundation has awarded $20 million to an Emory University chemistry center that brings together scientists from across the country working in the field of organic synthesis.
The university’s Center for Selective C-H Functionalization is working to have an important impact on the development of new drugs and other fine-chemical products. Many of the synthetic products people use daily, such as clothes and medications, are derived from organic synthesis.
The center has 25 scientists from 15 universities, according to Emory.
