The stabilization of supported nanoclusters is critical for different applications, including catalysis and plasmonics. Herein we investigate the impact of MoS2 grain boundaries (GBs) on the nucleation and growth of Pt NCs. The optimum atomic structure of the metal clusters is obtained using an adaptive genetic algorithm that employs a hybrid approach based on atomistic force fields and density functional theory. Our findings show that GBs stabilize the NCs up to a cluster size of nearly ten atoms, and with larger clusters having a
