Collaborative Research: NSFDEB-NERC: Tropical deadwood carbon fluxes: Improving carbon models by incorporating termites and microbes
One of the largest biological reservoirs of carbon is in the wood of forest trees. Once trees die, wood-containing carbon is consumed by organisms such as microbes and insects. Suc...
Military Service in Political Appointees
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2). This project addresses how prior military service affects the appointment an...
Factorization Homology and Low-Dimensional Topology
Recent decades have seen an explosion of research developments at the interface of low-dimensional topology and mathematical physics (particularly quantum field theory). These deve...
MRI: Acquisition of Ultra-High Speed Data Characterization System for Convergent Research in Big Data Era
The relentless and exponential increase in data generation and processing, especially real-time data, imposes grand challenges to society and demands significant research advanceme...
Collaborative Research: Enhanced 4D-Flow MRI through Deep Data Assimilation for Hemodynamic Analysis of Cardiovascular Flows
Forces resulting from blood flow interaction with walls of blood vessels have major impact on the initiation and progression of vascular diseases such as aneurysms, atherosclerosis...
Collaborative Research: EDGE FGT: Establishing functional genomics in anaerobic fungi for applications in agriculture, sustainability, and carbon cycling
Anaerobic fungi are powerful microorganisms native to the digestive tracts of ruminants and hindgut fermenters, including important livestock such as cattle, sheep, and goats. With...
CAREER: Hypersampled Model Predictive Control: Reconciling Analog Systems with Digital Controllers
This Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) grant will support research related to constrained control theory, promoting its dissemination in engineering science, practi...
De Novo Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural and Unnatural Oligosaccharide Motifs
With the support of the Chemical Synthesis Program (SYN) in the Division of Chemistry (CHE), Professor George O’Doherty and his research team at Northeastern University will work t...
SBIR Phase I: A Novel Probe for Biofilms
The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will be to improve performance of pulp and paper mills, especially small mills in rural areas,...
BEE: Demographic and evolutionary consequences of phenological tracking
Plants have many ways of determining the environment they experience. This ability to “track” environments alters ecology and evolution. This is because it changes the survival of...
Mapping Dissolved Oxygen using Observations and Machine Learning
Oxygen is produced by algae in the sunlit surface waters and is released into the atmosphere. This process contributes to about the half of atmospheric oxygen. However, there is a...
Scripps Institution of Oceanography - Oceanographic Equipment
Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) requests funds for oceanographic instrumentation that is needed to carry out NSF-supported scientific research. Working within the collabo...
Doctoral Dissertation Research: Variation in Body Composition in Primates
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).Research on primate biological variation can be used in a comparative framewo...
Doctoral Dissertation Research: Tradeoffs of Economic Mobility and Political Orientation in the Context of Urbanization
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2). The rise of urbanization often provides new economic opportunities for young...
Collaborative Research: Probing Coordination Specificity of Metalloprotein Domains with Peptide-Polymer Amphiphile Self Assembly
With the support of the Macromolecular, Supramolecular and Nanochemistry Program in the Division of Chemistry, Dr. Abigail Knight (University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill) and Dr...
Experimental refinement of the boron isotope proxy in planktic foraminifera - temperature, asymbiotic sensitivity, and seawater elemental composition
Culture experiments will be used to study the shell composition of planktonic foraminifera. Planktonic foraminifera are single-celled organisms that live in the surface ocean. Scie...
Linking Matrix Composition with Spatially Resolved Mechanical Properties in Polymicrobial Biofilms
This award will support research to understand the mechanistic underpinnings of biofilm mechanical and physical properties. Biofilms are soft multi-component biological materials....
Normalized Betti Numbers, Non-Positive Curvature, and the Singer Conjecture
Differential geometry is a broad and active subject that plays a crucial role in modern mathematics, theoretical physics, and computer science. It studies spaces called differentia...
Collaborative Research: ELEMENTS: The LROSE Science Gateway LIDAR/RADAR Analysis In The Cloud
Remote sensing observations from weather radars and lidars consist of a tremendous amount of raw data. Analysis of this data is often time-consuming, slowing the translation of dat...
MCA: Quantitative understanding of heritable epigenetic changes
Interactions with the environment in one generation of an organism can cause effects that last for many generations even without changes in DNA sequence. Being able to predict what...
