Long-term Effects of Developmental Air Pollution Exposure on Adult Mental Health: Sensitive Periods, Neural Correlates, and Genetic Risk Factors
Project Summary: The overall goal of this project is to understand whether exposure to fine particulate air pollution (PM2.5) during development has long-lasting effects on neurops...
Neural circuitry and population dynamics for perception of social vocalizations in the auditory pathway
Project Summary The ability to perceive and respond to vocalizations across behavioral contexts is key for survival, but the mechanisms for how the brain derives meaning from acous...

Conference on Advanced Psychometric Methods in Cognitive Aging Research
The rising prevalence with advancing age and the adverse impact of debilitating diseases like Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) has led to a need for clinical and re...
Collaborative Research: HCC: Small: Supporting Flexible and Safe Disability Representation in Social Virtual Reality
Social Virtual Reality (VR) is an emerging social medium, where a user immerses in a 3D virtual space in the form of an avatar and interacts with others via speech and body gesture...
Regulation of lupus pathogenesis through modulation of thymic development of pathobiont-specific T cells
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT CANDIDATE: I am a postdoctoral research associate in the laboratory of Dr. Gretchen E. Diehl in the Immunology Program at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer C...
The contribution of the intestinal microbiota to fracture-induced pain
Bone fractures are painful injuries that disproportionally affect Veterans. Emerging evidence suggests that the intestinal microbiota is a significant regulator of inflammatory, ne...
PRIME-Boston (Prevention of and Response to Incidents of Climate-Related Mental Health Emergencies in Vulnerable Communities in Boston, MA)
Project Summary/Abstract There is growing evidence demonstrating that extreme heat is adversely impacting the mental health of exposed populations. However, there is a need for fur...
Elucidating Critical Dependencies Underlying Therapeutic Evasion in Philadelphia Chromosome-like Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Unravelling the mechanisms of transcriptional dysregulation in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy
Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is a neuromuscular disease affecting adult males worldwide, resulting in progressive and yet untreatable motor dysfunction and severe disa...
A testable hypothesis for lipoprotein-driven bacterial outer membrane evolution
A fundamental paradigm in microbiology was created by Christian Gram's pioneering 1884 staining technique that characterised the vast majority of the bacterial world as either...
Interrogating Dynamic Regulation of Pre-Synaptic Release Probability In Vivo
Project Summary: This proposal will interrogate pre-synaptic release properties in vivo in order to extend observations made in reduced system to the awake brain. Release probabili...
Improving emergency psychiatric care through machine learning, causal inference, and psychometrics
Background: The United States is experiencing a crisis in mental health care, in which long-term shifts towards the emergency department (ED) for psychiatric treatment have been ex...
Clinical and functional assessment of glaucoma-associated mitochondrial gene variants to facilitate precision eye care
The NIH Precision Medicine Initiative was launched in 2015 with the goal of improving disease treatment and prevention based on understanding of genes, environment, and lifestyle....
Mechanisms of amplification and nonlinearity in the mouse cochlea
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Mammalian hearing sensitivity depends on the amplification of sound-evoked cochlear vibrations by outer hair cells (OHCs). How these cells provide amplific...
Sensory Integration for Spatial Navigation After Concussion
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The reasons for persistent symptoms following a concussion, such as dizziness and imbalance, are not well understood. While common perceptions attribute di...
