LAWRENCE An assistant professor at the University of Kansas received a prestigious grant designed to help early-career faculty members in STEM disciplines establish a lifetime of leadership in their respective fields.
The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) went to Robert Unckless, assistant professor of molecular biosciences in the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences. The award is the highest honor given by the NSF to young researchers.
“Dr. Unckless is already making discoveries that are helping us understand fundamental biological processes that could have future implications for human health,” said Simon Atkinson, vice chancellor for research. “This award recognizes the importance of that work and endorses Dr. Unckless’ potential to serve as a leader in his field for years to come.”
