STTR Phase I: Dermatologist-level detection of suspicious pigmented skin lesions from high-resolution full-body images
The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer Program (STTR) Phase I project is to improve outcomes in dermatology and enable improved clinical...
Collaborative Research: From subduction to suture: testing collisional stage and lithospheric strength as controls on orogenic structure in the Caucasus
Mountain belts form where two plates that make up the outer-most shell of the Earth (the crust) collide. These collisions are driven by the plate tectonic cycle. Where one collidin...
MRI: Acquisition of a Single Crystal X-ray Diffractometer for Research and Teaching at Missouri State University
This award to Missouri State University at Springfield is supported by the Major Research Instrumentation and the Chemistry Research Instrumentation programs to improve research by...
Accomplishment Based Renewal: The Architecture and Tectonics of the Ultraslow Spreading SW Indian and Gakkel Ridges
This project will photograph, describe, and curate a large collection of oceanic crustal rocks from two ultraslow spreading ridges – the Gakkel Ridge (GR) in the Arctic Ocean and t...
Excellence in Research: Predicting computations that lead to a stable perception of object lightness under spectral variabilities of the visual scene
The human visual system allows people to see objects in a scene as unchanging, despite variation in the light reaching the eyes. For example, consider the task of estimating the li...
Collaborative Research: Droplet-based selection to improve aflatoxin detoxification
Fungi are microorganisms that can grow naturally on cereals and fruits. When fungi grow, some can produce toxins that can damage our nervous system, liver, and urinary tract when c...
CAS: Collaborative Research: Solar CO2 Reduction by Atomically Dispersed Metal Sites on Few-Layer Carbon Nitride
With the support of the Chemical Catalysis program in the Division of Chemistry, Gonghu Li of the University of New Hampshire, N. Aaron Deskins of Worcester Polytechnic Institute a...
Stereoscopic visualization study of turbulence and vortex-tangle dynamics in He II
Non-Technical Abstract:When liquid helium is cooled to below about -271 degrees Celsius, it becomes a superfluid (called He II), which can do things that other fluids cannot, such...
MCA: Destroying continental plates - unraveling the role of magmatism
A fundamental idea of plate tectonics is that most of the ‘action’ (earthquakes, volcanoes, faulting) happens at plate boundaries and that the interiors of tectonic plates are stab...
Collaborative Research: Undergraduate Research Experiences in Extragalactic Radio Astronomy
Undergraduate Research Experiences in Extragalactic Radio Astronomy by the Undergraduate ALFALFA Team (UAT) is a collaborative, multi-faceted program of faculty and undergraduate r...
Reconstructing paleoecology for critical transitions in hominin evolution
Understanding the paleoecology associated with hominin fossils can advance knowledge about the factors that determined the evolution of the human lineage. In this multidisciplinary...
Polymer-Based Capsules of Active Liquids Templated by Non-Aqueous Emulsions
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY:Scientists and engineers continue to develop new materials with improved performance in applications such as batteries, water purification, gas uptake, and so...
MRI: Acquisition of a Single Crystal X-ray Diffractometer for Research and Education at an HBCU
This award to Hampton University is supported by the Major Research Instrumentation and the Chemistry Research Instrumentation programs to support research by Oluwatoyin Asojo and...
NSF-DFG Echem: CAS: Cooperativity Between Immobilized Redox Mediators for Selective Anodic Biomass Valorization
With the support of the Chemical Catalysis program in the Division of Chemistry, Adam Holewinski and Wei Zhang of the University of Colorado-Boulder are studying new designs for ca...
Doctoral Dissertation Research in Economics: Information Asymmetry in Job Search
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).Wage gaps across race and gender persist among equally educated individuals,...
Graduate Education and the Earnings of Men and Women
This research project will study the earnings and careers of highly educated men and women, with a focus on graduate education. A large fraction of college graduates choose to obta...
Collaborative Research: Bromoform production and ROS response to stress in seaweeds
This project will study how seaweeds sense and respond to stress at the molecular level. The collaborative team will use the seaweed Asparagopsis taxiformis as a model system to st...
Thermally functional and reversible thermal conductivity switching in nanoporous molecular frameworks
The energy consumption of the United States primarily relies on nonrenewable resources such as coal and petroleum that lead to large quantities of toxic emissions. Also, most of th...
A person-by-situation approach to predicting behavior with implicit measures
The ability to accurately predict human behavior is a signature challenge of social science. Attitudes encapsulate specific thoughts and feelings that presumably should predict beh...
Collaborative Research: ISS: GOALI: Transients and Instabilities in Flow Boiling and Condensation Under Microgravity
Extensive terrestrial studies have been conducted for over seventy years to develop, test and validate predictive theories for flow boiling and condensation as they occur in variou...
