 Researchers across disciplines team up to tackle problems ranging from inefficient buildings to fragile healthcare systems


 *By Salata Institute Communications*

 The [Salata Institute](https://salatainstitute.harvard.edu/) Seed Grant Program, launched in April to enable new interdisciplinary research in climate and sustainability, has announced its first cohort of awards. The program will support 19 faculty members working across seven Harvard Schools with funding for projects ranging from exploring a new, algae-based building insulation material to researching the carbon footprint of AI-driven computing.

 Harvard faculty members interested in applying to the program, which is supported by a gift from the Troper Wojcicki Foundation, can access the current [call for proposals](https://salatainstitute.harvard.edu/updated-call-for-proposals-salata-institute-seed-grant-program-in-climate-and-sustainability/) to learn more. The next deadline to apply is Sept. 8.

 Here’s a look at the first 14 projects the program is funding, presented in alphabetical order by lead researcher’s name.
