Sinusoidally modulated fluorescence imaging for stress detection in plants
Crop plants are subject to multiple environmental stresses that limit their productivity by impacting photosynthetic performance. Despite years of selective breeding, crops are not...
CAREER: Scalable approaches for systems virology
Viruses are the most abundant biological entities on Earth and are keystone components of environments and microbiomes whose contributions have mostly been overlooked. Understandin...
RESEARCH-PGR: Developing novel strategies to enhance the tolerance of crops to a combination of drought and heat stress.
Heat waves occurring during periods of drought stress have a devastating impact on agricultural production and yield. A combination of drought and heat stress occurring during the...
Collaborative Research: Fingerprinting Energy and Water Cycle Extremes through a Scale-Interaction Lens
Extreme weather events such as heat waves, cold air outbreaks (CAOs), droughts, and heavy precipitation commonly cause disruptions over regions the size of the northern midwest or...

CAREER: Coffee fungi below and aboveground: agroecological experiments for teaching and learning about fungal diversity and ecosystem function
Humans depend on biodiversity, the diversity of life on Earth, for our sustenance and survival, yet our current management of Earth’s natural resources has generated rapid losses o...
Cues and mechanisms of daily cell wall thickening
Most plant biomass is made up of a thick wall that surrounds some types of cell. A tree trunk or a corn stalk are mostly this form of secondary cell wall. This growth, where plant...
CAREER: Toward Embedding Perpetual Intelligence into Ultra-Low-Power Sensing and Inference Systems
Years of technological advancements have made it possible for small, portable, electronic devices of today to last for years on battery power, and last forever - when powered by ha...
