CDS&E: Accelerating the Computational Design of Nanoparticle-Protein Interactions via Molecular Simulations, Topological Data Analysis, and Machine Learning
Cells secrete nano-scale sacs that contain signaling molecules, enzymes, and sometimes RNA. These sacs, referred to as vesicles, have been repurposed for drug delivery or to carry...
Elucidating how species interactions influence the success or failure of invasion into microbial communities
In recent years there has been a growing understanding of microbes’ potentials to address societal challenges, from ecosystem sustainability to public health to industrial producti...
MRI Track 1: Development of a School of Robotic Fish for Research and Training on AI Biomimetics and Multi-modal Communications
This Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) grant will develop a multi-agent AI system of (a) three bio-inspired underwater vessels integrated with multimodal (optical and acoustic)...
Collaborative Research: Fabrication of Columnar-Grained Microstructures and Single Crystals via Directional Recrystallization of Additively-Manufactured Nickel-based Alloys
Ni-based superalloys were developed in the 1940s and have been continuously improved ever since, culminating in the current single-crystal jet turbine blades made by directional so...
MRI: Track 1# Acquisition of a Light Sheet Microscope
An award is made to the University of South Alabama to acquire a dual inverted selective plane illumination microscopy (diSPIM) light sheet system. The diSPIM light sheet system en...
Prediction, Inference, and Choice
This research focuses on understanding how people make decisions and interact based on information. One part explores the long-run implications of people not fully accounting for t...
Developing Partnerships Among Refugee-Serving Organizations and Learning Institutions to Advance Informal STEM Learning Among Refugee Communities
Although the number of refugee groups has increased across the United States in recent decades, many groups do not have opportunities to engage in quality STEM (science, technology...
EAGER: Developing High Latitudes Capabilities for Wave Gliders
The polar oceans act as a central thermostat that helps set the Earth’s temperature and governs our climate. Rapid changes are currently ongoing in the polar regions in response to...
Enhancing the Performance of Belite via Foreign Dopants
This research project addresses the pressing global challenge of reducing carbon emissions from cement production. Ordinary Portland cement, produced at a rate of 4 billion tons/ye...
Combinatorics of Total Positivity: Amplituhedra and Braid Varieties
The answers to real world problems, such as determining the behavior of particles in particle accelerators, are often quite complicated. Mathematics abstracts these complicated beh...
Modeling glass formers: Allying with experiment to study families of complex materials and new molecular pathways to equilibration
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARYThis award supports research and educational activities that will deepen our understanding of glassy materials, expand our ability to connect their molecular n...
Multicenter, longitudinal study of acromioclavicular joint reconstruction techniques for restoring shoulder complex biomechanics and soft tissue health
PROJECT SUMMARY: Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) injuries are one of the most prevalent shoulder injuries among young athletes participating in contact sports, which could have long-...
Targeting Glioblastoma Stem Cells
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Glioblastoma represents one of the most lethal types of cancers. Despite extensive molecular characterization, precision medicine efforts have largely fail...
Inflammatory Disease Associations in Clonal Hematopoiesis
Project Summary Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is the pre-malignant expansion of a population of blood cells derived from a single hematopoietic stem cell and is often caused by somatic...
Investigating Impacts of Neighborhood Disadvantage on ADRD risks, imaging biomarkers, and cognition
PROJECT SUMMARY An estimated 6.7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) dementia in 2023, with more than 55 million people living with AD worldwide. However, st...
