SBIR Phase II: Thermal Intensification for Continuous Thermoplastic Composite Forming
The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project addresses the historic challenges associated with composite manufacturing, including long cycl...
CAREER: New Approaches to Managing Lifecycles of Digital Knowledge Commons
This research seeks to understand and develop remedies for a set of very difficult problems that face peer production information resources and that have kept many from achieving h...
SBIR Phase I: Resilience for Waterfront Infrastructure (“REWIRE”)
The broader impact/ commercial potential of this SBIR Phase I project is to support sustainable coastal communities and infrastructure facing risks due to erosion, sea level rise,...
Collaborative Research: Reevaluating calcification response to changes in seawater chemistry by testing the Proton Flux Hypothesis and the Coral Metabolism Model
Corals build calcium carbonate skeletons to maintain the three-dimensional structure of a coral reef, which provides habitat for many organisms and protects shorelines from bioeros...
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...
DMS-EPSRC: Fast Martingales, Large Deviations, and Randomized Gradients for Heavy-tailed Distributions
This project investigates the theoretical underpinnings of Bayesian computational methods that are key in studying heavy-tailed distributions. These distributions are known to mode...
CAREER: Modern Algorithm Design via the Optimization Lens
Computer Science is a rapidly growing field leading to new kinds of computational problems. For example, data is being produced at a huge rate today, and an algorithm's access...
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...
The NANOGrav Physics Frontiers Center
This Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) award to the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) supports their focus on the direct detection and character...
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 explor...
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...
CAREER: Computational methods to improve our understanding of the diversity of genomic structural variation
Structural variations (SVs) are defined as medium and large genome rearrangements. A growing body of evidence has shown that SVs are a major contributing factor to diseases, comple...
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...
