CAREER: Unraveling post-invasion dynamics of the amphibian-killing fungus via rapid genetic diversity assessments of both hosts and pathogens
In wildlife, prominent examples of mycoses (diseases caused by fungi) include white-nose syndrome and the recent spread and emergence of snake fungal disease, but no other fungal p...
CAREER: Quantum Size Effects on Thermal Radiation
Quantum-scale (i.e., nanometer and sub-nanometer scale) materials exhibit thermal radiation properties that are significantly different from ordinary bulk materials. This phenomeno...
Function and regulation of constitutive protein translation in platelets
Project Summary The goals of this proposal are: 1) to elucidate the molecular signaling of protein translation initiation in circulating human platelets and characterize the plasma...
Collaborative Research: The Value of Information in Networked Control: a Utility Based Approach
