The ENRICH Study: Engaging Community and Municipal Services to Promote High Quality Aging in Place After Hip Fracture
PROJECT SUMMARY: The quantity and quality of aging in place after a hip fracture is poor, and these outcomes have not improved substantially over the last 20-years.The built enviro...
DMS-EPSRC: Topology of Automated Motion Planning
This project will investigate new mathematics useful for understanding the complexity of robotic action in a physical environment. The project thus concentrates on those aspects th...
Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolases and Chemical Communication in Plants
Plants use small molecules as signals to synchronize their growth, development and responses to their environment. This project seeks to understand how an evolutionarily-conserved...
CAREER: Microplastics in snow-dominated environments - sources, transport, and fate
The accumulation of plastic debris is an increasing concern for the environment following decades of global plastic production. Microplastics (plastic particles less than 5 millime...
Predictive coding impairment in mouse models of autistic spectrum disorders
Theoretical work and psychophysical studies have led to the hypothesis that autism phenotypes may be manifestations of an underlying impairment in predictive abilities. Within this...
Genetics and breeding of Taurine-Indicine crossbred dairy cattle
This project will contribute to sustainable food production by studying the genetics and breeding of Taurine-Indicine crossbred dairy cattle. Taurine-Indicine crossbred cattle is u...
BEE: Demographic and evolutionary consequences of phenological tracking
Plants have many ways of determining the environment they experience. This ability to “track” environments alters ecology and evolution. This is because it changes the survival of...
Metabolic Syndrome, Periodontal Health, and the Oral Microbiome
Project Summary Metabolic syndrome (MetS), a global epidemic that affects more than 1/3rd of the US adult population, is a cluster of biochemical and physiological abnormalities th...
NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology FY 2021: Adaptation along a thermal gradient in the holopelagic ctenophore, Mnemiopsis leidyi
This action funds an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2021, Integrative Research Investigating the Rules of Life Governing Interactions Between Genomes, Envir...

Genetic, hormonal, and mechanical influences on sexually dimorphic bone development
Sex dimorphism, phenotypic differences between males and females, is widespread in the musculoskeletal system.Within the craniofacial skeleton, this variation can result in differe...
Towards perceptive and self-aware robots
Robots are typically applied in manufacturing and assembly processes to perform tasks such as welding, painting, assembly, pick and place and packing just to name a few. These task...

Soils and Land-Use in an Urban Context - Past, Present and Future: Lamanai, Belize from 1600 B.C. to A.D. 1990
The project aims to investigate over two millennia of human-environment interactions at the Maya site of Lamanai, Belize, with a focus on understanding land use in an urban context...
Neuromodulatory-prefrontal interactions in primates
We aim to understand how two brain systems cooperate and compete to guide behaviour. One system consists of the ascending neuromodulatory systems (ANS). These comprise groups, call...
