The Center for Electrochemical Dynamics and Reactions on Surfaces (CEDARS) at North Carolina A&T has been named the 2025 Interdisciplinary Team of the Year. The award recognizes research projects that transcend disciplinary boundaries and are supported by external funding.

This perspective article, led by RASEI Fellow Tanja Cuk, brings together researchers at six research institutions from across the United States, to describe how advances in spectroscopy and theory can map out the elementary details of the oxygen evolution reaction, a critical reaction to enable the production of fuels from sustainable energy sources.

In August 2022, the DOE awarded North Carolina Agricultural and Technical (A&T) State University a grant to open an EFRC on its campus. N.C. A&T is the first historically Black college and university (HBCU) to receive this funding from the DOE.
