Idaho State University (ISU) is proud to announce the recipients of the 2025 ISU-CAES Internal Seed Grants. The program provides funding to ISU-led projects in collaboration with researchers at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). A total of $73,575 was awarded this year.
Funding was awarded to projects associated with CAES Focus Areas and INL’s Strategic Science and Technology (S&T) Initiatives and that engendered collaboration with INL researchers. Proposals were evaluated in a double-blind peer review process by scientists from the United States Department of Energy’s national laboratories. The main factors considered in proposal evaluation were intellectual merit/quality, relation to CAES Focus Areas and INL’s Strategic S&T Initiatives and potential for external funding.
