Frontiers of Coarse-graining
Gregory Voth of the University of Chicago is supported by an award from the Chemical Theory, Models and Computational Methods program in the Division of Chemistry to develop and ap...
Geometric Methods for Singular Solutions to Nonlinear Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations
The principal investigator (PI) will study equations with physical and geometric origins, including Euler’s equations, which describe the motion of fluids such as air and water, an...
Collaborative Research: Exoneration and Compensation: The Role of False Confessions
Instances in which innocent individuals are wrongly convicted represent serious travesties of justice because the actual guilty offenders may go on to commit other, sometimes serio...
Doctoral Dissertation Research: Bioprospecting and Scientific Knowledge in Post-Conflict Societies
The doctoral dissertation project investigates the mobilization of biodiversity as a resource for building post-conflict futures in societies transitioning from war to peace. In a...
Renewal to OCE-1558374: WHOI Sea Floor Samples Laboratory: Curation and distribution of samples from the sea floor in the service of marine science and education
Samples of seafloor rocks, cores, corals, hydrothermal vent fluids and chimney deposits, sediments, other materials are valuable scientific resources that are collected at great ex...
CRII: HCC: Modeling computer-mediated task-oriented dialogues with multi-modality information theoretic approaches
Effective real-time remote communication is challenging because unlike face-to-face conversations, information is exchanged indirectly through computer screens and speakers. In the...
I-Corps: Development of a Periodontal Ultrasound/Photoacoustic Imaging Device
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project may lead to an accurate and early detection of periodontal disease to reduce the pain and cost of dental care. Perio...
Social Adaptation During Periods Of State Collapse
Researchers will investigate how communities respond to state collapse and climate change, two processes that have set global human populations into motion for generations. Archaeo...
Exploring van der Waals heterostructure magnetic devices for high-efficiency and high-density memory
This proposed research will explore van der Waals heterostructure-based magnetic devices capable of delivering highly efficient antidamping spin-orbit torque for switching perpendi...
EAGER: An innovative approach for quantification and prospective isolation of Nosema ceranae life stages from host cells with potential for application to diverse pathogen species
Some microbial pathogens are obligate intracellular pathogens. They are hard to study because of their complex life cycles which occur inside the cells of their hosts. In other are...
Collaborative Research: SaTC: CORE: Small: Expanding the Realm of Oblivious Transfer: New Tools for Cryptography
Nowadays, vast amounts of individual information are collected by numerous entities for providing a variety of services. Due to the sensitive nature of the collected data, the need...
Multi-Spectral Digital Holography for Aerosol Material Characterization
Aerosols are small particles of solid or liquid material dispersed in a gas and they are common in everyday life. Familiar examples include the water-droplets forming clouds, the d...
Mapping, Clarifying, and Communicating Key Ideas about Collaborative Learning
This project will synthesize research on computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL). Collaborative learning occurs often in preK-12 STEM teaching--yet most teachers are unawa...
Emergent Properties of Cancer Square Table
This proposal seeks support for a Square-Table (SQT) meeting that is one of three meetings co-organized by the Division of Cancer Biology (DCB) of the National Cancer Institute (NC...
Analysis of Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations in Free Boundary Fluid Dynamics, Mathematical Biology, and Kinetic Theory
This project aims to develop new methods to advance the current level of scientific knowledge on a diverse collection of recognized questions in two different areas of the mathemat...
Mechanisms for Film Formation During Room Temperature Micro Cold Spray of Ceramics
This grant advances the understanding of a recently discovered direct-write, additive manufacturing process for producing films. Additive manufacturing by direct writing is the pro...
Collaborative Research: Empowering Next Generation Offshore Wind Farms Through Systematic Characterization of Floating Wind Turbine Array Dynamics
Higher and more consistent wind speeds, along with the abundance of available area, make offshore wind a promising pathway to increasing the percentage of US electricity supplied b...
Quantifying Crop Biomechanics Across Plant Lifespans
This grant will support research in fundamental crop biomechanics, which will enhance basic scientific knowledge and contribute to the future of agricultural sustainability. In agr...
