The '''Chicago/DOE Alliance Center – A Center of Excellence for Materials at Extremes''' (CDAC) at UIC is dedicated to advancing the understanding of materials under extreme conditions like high pressure and temperature, relevant to the NNSA's nuclear weapons stewardship. It conducts research on material properties, develops new high-pressure experimental techniques, and trains future scientists in these areas, fostering collaboration between academic institutions and NNSA laboratories. | The '''Chicago/DOE Alliance Center – A Center of Excellence for Materials at Extremes''' (CDAC) at UIC is dedicated to advancing the understanding of materials under extreme conditions like high pressure and temperature, relevant to the NNSA's nuclear weapons stewardship.
