Design, Synthesis and Supramolecular Assembly of Furan-Based Macrocycles: Understanding Intra- and Intermolecular Conjugation
With the support of the Macromolecular, Supramolecular and Nanochemistry Program in the NSF Division of Chemistry, Drs. Kevin Noonan and Tomasz Kowalewski of Carnegie Mellon Univer...
STTR Phase I: Harnessing the power of introns for safe and effective therapeutics and genomic screening
The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project will be the development of a safe and effective treatment for a devastatin...
Collaborative Research: Laboratory and theoretical study of geyser dynamics
With over 4 million annual visitors to Yellowstone's Old Faithful geyser, public fascination with geysers is undeniable. Yet, the scientific understanding of geysers is incomp...
Collaborative Research: Halfspace Depth for Object and Functional Data
Complex data objects are increasingly being generated across science and engineering. Non-Euclidean data such as wind directions, neural connectivity networks, and phylogenetic tre...
CAS: A General Synthetic Platform for Atomically-Precise Functionalization of Two-Dimensional Nanomaterials
With the support of the Macromolecular, Supramolecular, and Nanochemistry Program in the Division of Chemistry, Dr. Christina Li of Purdue University will investigate the systemati...
Genomic design principles of carbon exchange between algae and bacteria
The research will discover the rules for building ecosystems that cycle carbon. Life on Earth is sustained by a global carbon cycle. Understanding how and why this cycling is maint...
Geometric and Microlocal Study of Automorphic Periods
In harmonic analysis, one represents functions on a space as a superposition of waves with varying frequencies. In number theory and the Langlands program, one is interested in fun...
CRII: RI: Using Linguistic Variation to Understand Deep Neural Models of Language
Many successful modern computational language systems rely on deep neural networks. Whereas older techniques relied on structured linguistic representations, the inner workings of...
CAREER: Powder Preparation and Compaction for Ceramic Binder Jet Additive Manufacturing
This Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) grant supports fundamental research that will generate knowledge related to ceramic binder jet additive manufacturing, promoting the...
Topological Dynamics and Countable Combinatorics
Dynamics is the study of objects in motion. Here, an "object" is represented by a point in some mathematical structure, and "motion" is understood to mean a gro...
NSF/FDA SIR: Numerical heart model for irreversible electroporation ablation
Traditional cardiac ablation is a medical procedure that uses thermal energy to destroy a small area of heart tissue that is causing rapid and irregular heartbeats in atrial fibril...
Collaborative Research: Experimental and Numerical Study of Bed Shear Stress and Turbulent Boundary Layer Structure Induced by Breaking-Wave-Generated Vortices
This research aims to improve the understanding of breaking wave vortices impinging on the seabed. This has broad impacts on the prediction of a wide range of near-shore processes...
Subgroups in Artin Groups and Lattices in Products of Trees
A group is an algebraic structure encoding symmetries of an object. It can be defined abstractly, as a collection of strings of letters, where certain equations describe which two...
Overparameterization, Global Convergence of the Expectation-Maximization Algorithm, and Beyond
The expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is among the most popular algorithms for statistical inference. Despite a wide range of successful applications in both statistics and m...
GOALI: CAS: Targeted Design of Blocky Poly(Ether Ether Ketone) Copolymers for Enhanced Interfacial Interactions in Blends and Composites
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY:The current demand for enhanced material properties has often followed a bottom-up approach to synthesize new polymers using complex chemical procedures that...
Optimal Measures and Point Configurations: A Harmonic Analysis Approach
Optimal point configurations and distributions arise in numerous areas in science applications including sampling of data, signal processing, equilibria of particles and charges, c...
Topics in Threshold Models: Efficient Procedures under Endogeneity in Regression Discontinuity Designs and Distributed and Robust Estimation of Change-Points
The project concerns two different kinds of challenges. The first challenge involves a class of regression discontinuity designs where the question is whether a treatment, like a g...
Minimal Surfaces in Geometric Variational Problems
Differential geometry is a modern version of Euclidean geometry that studies shapes inside curved surfaces in any number of dimensions. Two key notions in differential geometry, be...
Collaborative Research: Investigating STEM Teacher Preparation and Rural Teacher Persistence and Retention
The project aims to serve the national need of addressing STEM teacher shortages in rural communities. Staffing schools with high quality STEM teachers has been a persistent challe...
High-Valent Non-Oxo-Metal Complexes of Late Transition Metals For sp3 C–H Bond Activation
With the support of the Chemical Synthesis program in the Division of Chemistry, Dr. Dong Wang of the University of Montana is studying new methodologies to generate transition met...
