Specifically, Rowan University will receive $273,047 for research under the direction of Dr. Shen Shyang Ho, as well as $1,499,977 in federal funding for research directed by Dr. Kaitlin Mallouk.\n\nRead more about the projects here and here.\n\n\u201cThese federal dollars will allow South Jersey\u2019s brightest to continue leading the way in research and development,\u201d said Congressman Norcross. \u201cRowan University has established itself as a leader in scientific innovation, making remarkable breakthroughs and preparing the next generation of innovators. I\u2019m proud to help strengthen our community\u2019s workforce by supporting this funding and look forward to seeing the results of their research.\u201d\n\n\u201cMachines can be taught to detect unusual patterns in complex systems, allowing for the real-time detection of problems, such as fraud, suspicious behavior, manufacturing defects, power outages or even disease,\u201d said Dr. Shen-Shyang Ho, associate professor of computer science at Rowan University. \u201cWith this grant from the National Science Foundation, we intend to design a reliable and effective framework for detecting anomalies, provide accurate, early warnings and explain why they are happening, so decision-makers, government agencies and the general public can respond accordingly.\u201d\n\nThis announcement followed Congressman Norcross\u2019s steady effort to expand research opportunities for South Jersey students. This summer, Congressman Norcross fought to pass the CHIPS and Science Act, which delivers approximately $141 billion to promote innovative research and supercharge technological advances across the country. In August 2022, Norcross nearly $1.5 million in federal grants to bolster climate science and engineering in South Jersey. Additionally, he secured $500,000 in community project funding for a new wind energy jobs training program at Rowan University in March 2022.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-03-30T11:08:25Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://norcross.house.gov/press-releases?ID=E1C0FEE0-A4F5-40B0-95C4-A6CDE13AF96F"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6050299163907766, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
