Serving Two Masters; The Role of Trade-Offs in the Evolution of Bacteriophage/Metal Resistance in Escherichia Coli
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major public health challenge that portends danger in healthcare delivery, as scientific reviews on antibiotic resistance predicted a likelihood...
RUI: Negative Ion Photodetachment Spectroscopy and Lifetimes
General audience abstract:This project will experimentally investigate the properties of negative ions, which are atoms or molecules with an extra electron. Negative ions are impor...
Collaborative Research: Investigations of Density-graded Auxetic Foams at Multiple Scales
Polymeric foams have been used in many impact mitigation applications, affecting various aspects of our daily activities ranging from walking and running to protection gears in act...
US GEOTRACES GP17-OCE and GP17-ANT: Atmospheric Deposition and Aerosol Fractional Solubility in Remote Ocean Regions
Trace Elements are defined by their low concentrations in the open ocean and their addition and removal rates are key uncertainties in our understanding of ocean chemistry. In spit...
Sentinels: A plug-and-play RNA sensing technology platform for surveillance and response to emerging viral diseases
Cells can be programmed to sense infectious agents and, in response, actuate biomolecular programs to alert, protect the host, or destroy the pathogenic target. Engineering cells i...
CAREER: Advancing Physical Human-Robot Interaction through Intuitive Sensorimotor Communication
In the near future, robotic systems will collaborate closely with human partners to complete shared tasks such as materials handling in manufacturing and patient care in clinical s...
Volcanic eruptions in high resolution
Volcano seismology has focused on the times before and after eruptions. Although the most important part of a volcano’s lifecycle is the eruption itself, few earthquakes have been...
CompCog: Computational Models of Plasticity and Learning in Speech Perception
When it comes to speech perception, listeners are lifelong learners. Although infants’ perception becomes tuned to their native language in their first year of life, their speech s...
CRII: CNS: Auction Mechanism Design for Energy-Efficient High Performance Computing
High performance computing (HPC) systems (such as supercomputers) are generally large infrastructures containing thousands of server nodes that can perform computations in a fast a...
MCA: Multi-scale considerations of climatic signatures on debris flows and alluvial fans
Worldwide, communities are experiencing historic changes in storm frequencies and magnitudes that destroy homes and lives. One of the most devastating effects of frequent and/or in...
RUI: Dispersive Shock Waves in Nonlinear Lattices: Theory to Application
Understanding how systems respond to sudden changes is critical to science and engineering applications. Classic examples include explosions in confined areas, gases compressed in...
I-Corps: Carbon-negative supplementary cementitious materials for carbon-neutral concrete
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the conversion of a broad range of negative-value and low-value solid wastes into high-value, blended, supplement...
The Local Mode Analysis - Decoding Chemical Information From Vibrational Spectroscopy Data
In this project funded by the Chemical Structure Dynamics and Mechanisms-A (CSDM-A) Program of the Chemistry Division, Professor Elfi Kraka and her Computational and Theoretical Ch...
Multi-modal Mass Spectrometric Imaging for Understanding the Biochemical Effects of Nanomaterials
With support from the Chemical Measurement and Imaging Program in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Richard Vachet, Professor Vincent Rotello, and their groups at the University...
Floodplain ecogeomorphic processes: interactions between floodplain forest characteristics, wood accumulations, and hydrogeomorphology
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).Downed, dead pieces of wood in rivers and floodplains influence physical and...
Collaborative Research: Far-from-equilibrium surfaces of high entropy alloys: interplay between frictional sliding and corrosion damage
Non-Technical SummaryMulti-principal-element alloys, also known as high entropy alloys (HEAs), are an emerging class of metallic materials which often consist of five or more alloy...
RAISE: Spring & Wings: Resonance in insect and engineered flight with synchronous and stretch-activated actuation
This Research Advanced by Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering (RAISE) project will develop a dynamical model to enhance understanding of insect flight as an integrated system...
Pathfinder: Low-loss 2 UM Faraday Isolators for 3G Detectors
In September 2015 the twin Advanced LIGO detectors directly observed for the first time the ripples from the merger of two black holes that travelled through space for more than on...
CAS: Molecular Engineering of Efficient Compatibilizers in Polymer Recycling
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARYPlastics are critical materials for broad swaths of society, including healthcare, food storage, packaging, and transportation, among others. However, managing...
CICI: UCSS: Helix++: Securing Open Science Platforms
The Helix++ project’s goal is to use recently developed, promising cybersecurity research results to secure open-science platforms. Securing these open-science platforms is vital b...
