Development of a Novel Cooling Vest to Prevent Heat-Induced Thermoregulatory Dysfunction in Persons with Spinal Cord Injury
Persons with spinal cord injury (SCI), particularly those with injuries above T6 (Hi-SCI), are unable to effectively regulate core body temperature (Tcore) due to interruption of...
High-throughput Lattice Light Sheet Microscopy : Imaging Across Scales.
Biomedical researchers frequently rely on live movies to understand the subcellular cause of diseases and to develop any therapeutic interventions. Such recording of movies of live...

This award was made through the "Signals in the Soil (SitS)" solicitation, a collaborative partnership between the National Science Foundation and the United States Department of A...
Artisanal Gold Mining in the Amazon Basin: The Feasability of a Sustainable Extractivist Practice
Context The Amazon rainforest is at a "tipping point", at which it would turn into a savannah-like ecosystem. Yet it is also the arena of a renewed gold rush in Brazil,...
Neural correlates of fear conditioning and extinction in veterans with PTSD and alcohol use disorder
Approximately half of all treatment seeking Veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have problems with alcohol, yet it is unclear how current alcohol use affects critic...

Councillor Mental Health Training (CMHT) (PHIRST Light)
Introduction Mental illness is one of the most common types of illness in the UK and has major implications for sickness absence rates and the UK economy. Mental health is shaped...
Identifying drivers of phage infectivity in natural microbial communities
Bacteria are among the most abundant organisms on earth, and are crucial for global geochemical cycling. Their viruses, bacteriophages (phages) are estimated to commonly outnumber...
Key-hole mining: engineering solutions towards zero-waste anodic electro-oxidation of green technology metals from sulphidic ores (ZERO-electro)
Metals are essential components of almost all modern technology. Amongst these are the emerging technologies on which we are depending to tackle the Climate Emergency: electric mot...
Pig ID: developing a deep learning machine vision system to track pigs using individual biometrics
Livestock farmers are turning to agri-technology to respond to the challenges of climate change, sustainability, anti-microbial resistance and food security while efficiently produ...
Mapping longitudinal squamous cell lung cancer pathogenesis in pursuit of a preventative therapy
Lung cancer kills more men and women than any other cancer. People with lung cancer have a 5% chance of living ten years. Around 75% of lung cancer is attributable to smoking but w...
Transmission Channels Measurements and Communication System Design for Future mm Wave Communications (mm Wave TRACCS)
As mobile radio systems developed, their operating frequency increased to the millimeter (mm) wave band (> 30 GHz) first used in the fifth-generation mobile radio network (5G)....
The ECM as a coordinator of cardiac function, growth and morphogenesis during heart development
The heart is a complex organ whose shape is tightly linked to function. During embryonic development the heart is initially a linear tube which undergoes rearrangement to generate...
INDIVIDUAL PLACEMENT AND SUPPORT FOR VETERANS WITH OPIOID USE DISORDER: A MIXED METHODS STUDY
Background: Living with an opioid use disorder (OUD) can make finding and sustaining employment a significant challenge and is only getting worse in the COVID-19 environment. With...
Collaborative Research: Experimental and numerical studies of the effects of wind, wave scale, and salinity on bubble entrainment by breaking waves
This is a study of the role of wave scale, wave slope, wind forcing, and salinity on the generation and dispersal of bubbles in breaking ocean waves through scale model laboratory...
