CAREER: Uncovering the mechanisms and repeatability of speciation with gene flow
This project explores an important question in evolutionary biology: How do new species form? It looks at whether the location of genes in a genome makes them more likely to help k...
Eco-evolutionary forces responsible for patterns of micro-endemism in an island biodiversity hotspot
Biodiversity hotspots are places with high concentrations of species found nowhere else in the world (i.e., “endemic” species) that are threatened by human activities. The processe...
Improving Communication Between Crime Laboratories and Legal Decision Makers
Forensic experts often communicate whether a suspect is linked to crime scene evidence by reporting a categorical forensic decision, such as identification (match), elimination or...
Conference: 2025 Mechanisms of Microbial Transcription GRC/GRS
This award will support participation of graduate students, postdocs, and junior scientists in the 2025 Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) and Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Mechan...
CAREER: Testing mechanistic theories underlying stimulus memorability
While all humans have unique experiences and memories, surprisingly a lot of what is remembered is similar across people. For example, when seeing a group of people for the first t...
CAREER: Transforming Ion Mobility Spectrometry-Mass Spectrometry-Based Isotopic Shifts Across Molecular Classes for Isomer Identification
With support from the Chemical Measurement and Imaging Program in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Nagy's group at the University of Utah is developing new methods to character...
Impacts of High Latitude Dust on the Arctic Cryosphere: A Focus on Svalbard
Decreasing snow cover, glacier retreat, and rising temperatures are all expected to increase Arctic dust sources and emissions. Mineral dust deposited on snow and ice surfaces dark...
Semantic alignment of modal auditory category and multimodal lexical-semantic networks
The natural world is filled with information that spans all of our senses. When we walk through a park we not only see a rich visual world, we also hear sounds ranging from birds t...
CAREER: Elucidating the biophysical mechanisms of membrane protein folding and stability through advanced single-molecule force spectroscopy
Membrane proteins are essential molecular machines that allow cells to interact with their environment, but we know surprisingly little about how they achieve and maintain their pr...
IUCRC Planning Grant Purdue University: Center for Research in Emerging Sustainable Space Technologies (CRES2T)
Space infrastructure plays a critical role in socio-economic development-enabling scientific discoveries and advancing communications, remote sensing, geophysical and astrophysical...
CAREER: Electromechanically probing quantum materials in curved space
Non-technical abstract: Physics on a curved surface is different than in flat space. The physics of curved quantum materials is a particularly interesting case. For instance, curre...
CAREER: Material-Changing Interfaces
People interact with materials all the time. Typically materials are used for specific purposes, for example, wood to hold up rigid floors or foam for cushioning. These materials d...
Collaborative Research: Harnessing entropy to discover new chalcogenide semiconductors
NON-TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION New solid-state materials are essential to advance existing or create new technologies. Materials synthesis remains a crucial bottleneck to the materials...
SBIR Phase II: Establishing Manufacturing Standards for Textile-Derived Recycled Polyester Feedstock
The broader/commercial impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project is the manufacturing of a highly desired but unavailable material for the textile i...
Conference: Rocky Mountain Mathematics Consortium Summer School
This award provides support for participants in the Rocky Mountain Mathematics Consortium (RMMC) Summer School on Analysis and Partial Differential Equations, to be held June 17-20...
SBIR Phase II: Cost-Effective Peptide Production Platform
The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project is to accelerate the commercialization of special molecules known as peptides. The last twenty...
CAREER: Understanding Geoecoconomic Factors for Achieving Geopolitical and Economic Objectives
This award funds research projects that combine theory and data to understand the geoeconomic mechanisms of international political coercion and great power competition and how the...
EAGER: Tools4Cells: Tools for locus-specific and interaction-specific protein depletion
The proposed research will develop a new experimental technique, to selectively remove a specific protein in a cell, but only when this protein is attached to a specific, unique sp...
Collaborative Research: CEDAR--Thermospheric Effects on Polar Cap Ionospheric Structures
This project will examine ion-neutral coupling processes at high latitudes to understand how the thermospheric dynamics affect the electron density structures and associated ion ou...
The role of learned selective attention in speech adaptation
No two people speak exactly alike. As a result, one person’s "pole" might sound like another person’s "bowl." The difference between such minimally different words comes down to sm...
