Investigador: Alejandro Carpio Departamento: Estudios Hispánicos Descripción: Esta investigación persigue ofrecer una mirada a la producción artística contemporánea; se explorarán detenidamente las inquietudes de los artistas puertorriqueños activos hoy día: desde las discusiones de raza y género dentro del sistema ideológico contemporáneo hasta la intersección de la cultura nacional en el ámbito global; desde las nuevas formas…
Investigador: Enrique Rodríguez, PhD Departamento: Biología Descripción: Drug of abuse such as alcohol produces long lasting changes in the brain reward circuitry. Alcohol is one of the world most abused drugs with a major health impact but the mechanisms by which these changes are produced remains unclear. Several internal and external factors such as stress, genetics,…
Investigador: Juan M. López Encarnación Descripción: The electronic and molecular structures, energetics and thermal stability of embedded draw solutes into a polymer-based membrane play a central role in the overall performance of these novel materials for water reclamation. The computational aid design is an important tool to assist the experimental approach from the synthesis to the…
Investigador: Juan M. López Encarnación Descripción: The following work plan has been thought out with the objective of unambiguously demonstrate our hypothesis on stability of nanobubbles provided by a molecular Goldberg polyhedral configuration. Computational methods including Density Functional Theory (DFT) and interatomic potentials (force fields) will be used to conduct molecular structure stability calculations and predict spectroscopic…
Investigador: Juan M. López Encarnación Descripción: Scope of Work: The main goal of this project is to improve the carbon dioxide and water recovery SPS-FO system by means of selecting an optimal SPS tertiary amine as draw solute and studying functionalized thin film composite (TFC) membranes for promising FO performance. This project responds to…

Investigador: Juan Santana, PhD Departamento: Matemática-Física Descripción: We are proposing a two-year project to perform computational studies of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) with heterobimetallic centers to design high-performance bifunctional catalysts for oxygen reduction and evaluation reactions (ORR and OER). We will explore MOF based on CO-M (Cu and Fe) heterobiometallic centers and 1,2,4,5 benzene tetra amine (BTA) and benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic…
