I-Corps: Brochosome-Inspired Optical Coating Technology
The broader impact/commerical potential of this I-Corps project involves the use of brochosome-inspired coatings for optical, energy, and sustainability applications. Brochosomes a...
The Divergent Effects of Conflict on Ethnic Voting
This project asks what determines whether salient ethnic divisions from conflict continue to be the source of political mobilization in post-conflict elections. The PIs identify an...
Collaborative Research: Biomass burning smoke as a driver of multi-scale microbial teleconnections
Microbes are found in all environments and play essential roles in nutrient cycling, gas exchange, and through associations with plants and animals. However, the ways that microbes...
Insuring Slavery: Actuarial Science and the Underwriting of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade in the Eighteenth Century
This project provides the first systematic analysis of the application of probabilistic mathematics to the trade in enslaved Africans. It offers foundational research for an explo...
DDRIE: Economic Consequences of Discrimination Against Minority Bosses by Subordinates
This doctoral dissertation research project will use experimental methods to study the causes and consequences of discrimination against minority managers who are underrepresented...
I-Corps: A respiratory monitor that provides transcutaneous airflow prediction using ultrasound waves
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-corps project is to address the gap in real-time recognition and quantification of respiratory airflow through a novel device with...
Collaborative Research: Diversity of modulation and functional flexibility in small neuronal networks: An evolutionary and mechanistic approach
Rhythmic movements, such as heartbeat and locomotion, must be flexible to allow animals to alter their behavior in response to changing conditions. Rhythmic movements are controlle...
Collaborative Research: Predicting riverbank erosion in thawing permafrost
Most Arctic floodplains have permanently frozen subsoil, or permafrost, that keeps the land intact and habitable along coasts and riverbanks. However, permafrost thaw can lead to w...
REU Site: Engineering and Nanoscience of Materials and Device Applications in Biotechnology and Medicine
The University of Central Florida’s Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site is aimed at fostering multidisciplinary engineering research towards developing new materials...
I-Corps: Digital Biomarkers Combined with Wearable Devices to Monitor Alzheimer’s Disease and other Neurological Disorders
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of a cloud-based, predictive analytics platform to identify, develop, and validate digital biomar...
REU Site: Secure, Robust, and Resilient AI-enabled System Engineering
Artificial intelligence (AI) has gained significant attention in recent years as an enabler of technologies such as autonomous cyber-physical systems and cybersecurity. This fundin...
