Optimality and Robustness in Piecewise-Deterministic Systems
This project focuses on quantifying and actively managing uncertainties resulting from random switches in global environments. An abrupt ecological change, a new disruptive technol...
EAGER: SAI: Human-Centered Design and Enhancement of Next Generation Transportation Infrastructure with Connected and Automated Vehicles
Strengthening American Infrastructure (SAI) is an NSF Program seeking to stimulate human-centered fundamental and potentially transformative research that strengthens America’s inf...
MRI: Development of the Next Generation 211-373 GHz Receiver for the Arizona Radio Observatory’s Sub-mm Telescope
Our atmosphere is transparent to some radio frequencies through which astronomers can collect important astrophysical information. Through these radio windows we can observe the ea...
Next-Generation Optical Contrasts for Characterization of Biological Tissue, Hard Matter, and Cultural Heritage Objects
With support from the Chemical Measurement and Imaging (CMI) Program in the Division of Chemistry, Drs. Martin Fischer and Warren Warren at Duke University will develop optical mic...
WoU-MMA: High-Energy Emission from Neutron Star Mergers
The detections of the collision of two neutron stars by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) has ushered in the era of multimessenger astronomy. Subsequen...
MIM: Discovering in reverse – using isotopic translation of omics to reveal ecological interactions in microbiomes.
Microbiomes in freshwater rivers comprise hundreds of species of algae, bacteria, fungi and microscopic animals. How do these groups of micro-organisms interact? Are the interactio...
Collective Atom Interaction with Photons
Small, cold objects behave in ways that are incredibly bizarre compared to larger, familiar objects of our normal experience. This strange behavior can become more emphatic when ma...
Collaborative Research: Frameworks: Seismic COmputational Platform for Empowering Discovery (SCOPED)
Seismology is the most powerful tool for investigating the interior structure of Earth—from its surface down to the inner core—and its wide range of processes, including earthquake...
Collaborative Research: Developing Records of Hydroclimate Variability in the Southeastern United States from the Middle Holocene to Present-Day
The Southeastern United States is an important agricultural region, but recent flooding and drought events have caused billions of dollars in economic loss. There is a lack of unde...
DMREF/Collaborative Research: Computationally Driven Design of Synthetic Tissue-Like Multifunctional Materials
In nature, living cells join to form tissues capable of collective behaviors, such as sensing and responding to external cues, communicating, sorting and storing chemical species,...
Collaborative Research: EAGER: Solving the bait learning problem for large-scale DNA enrichment
The microbiome refers to all micro-organisms within a biological sample and has been linked to numerous biological activities and phenotypes. For example, the “gut microbiome”, whi...
Collaborative Research: RUI: Weak and Protective Measurements in the Time Domain
This project will realize new ways of measuring a quantum system. In physics, the concept of a measurement is extremely important. We can only learn about the world around us by pe...
NRT: Research Training in Sustainable Packaging and Biodegradable Polymer Composites for the Next Generation of STEM Graduates
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).Current generation packaging materials are made of polymer composites that ar...
EAGER: Language Learning through Machine Theory of Mind
As natural language systems become ubiquitous (e.g. phone trees, chatbots, and smart homes) they must learn to adapt to users by modeling them each as individuals with different ab...
Exploring Dislocation Structures with Conventional EBSD
The interior of the Earth is not frozen but continuously turns over. The motion of rigid plates at the Earth’s surface is driven by the thermal convection of solid rocks in the pla...
CAREER: Human-Centric Automation in the Built Environment
Buildings, electric grids, and other aspects of the built environment are becoming increasingly automated to satisfy both complex societal objectives and individuals’ needs. As one...
Diffusion Dynamics in Disordered Quantum Lattices Gases
A key challenge to leveraging quantum phenomena as a foundation of next-generation technologies is understanding how the interplay of strong inter-particle interactions and disorde...
Collaborative Research: RUI: Weak and Protective Measurements in the Time Domain
This project will realize new ways of measuring a quantum system. In physics, the concept of a measurement is extremely important. We can only learn about the world around us by pe...
RCN-UBE Incubator: Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences for Students Underrepresented in Biology
The goal of this project is to establish multi-faceted course-based undergraduate research experiences in cellular genetics and socio-biology for students underrepresented in biolo...
Collaborative Research: Converging Design Methodology: Multi-objective Optimization of Resilient Structural Spines
Post-earthquake reconstruction efforts in New Zealand, Chile, and Japan are motivating the development of novel, low damage lateral force resisting systems to minimize social disru...
