A whole animal model for investigation of ingested nanoplastic mixtures and effects on genomic integrity and health
Project Summary/Abstract Microplastics (MP, plastic particles < 5 mm) are pervasive in the environment and an emerging health concern. MPs have the ability to accumulate chemica...
Innate and Hormone-Mediated Sex Differences in Extracellular Matrix Remodeling
PROJECT SUMMARY Biological sex is a clear factor in an individual’s ability to repair and regenerate tissue. Females are at higher risk for soft tissue injuries compared to age-mat...

Engineering B cells for enhanced HIV control
ABSTRACT. Despite advances in long-term antiretroviral therapy, people living with HIV (PLWH) exhibit residual viral replication and chronic inflammation that can drive a range of...
Collaborative Research: Understanding "wild-type" nanoplastic uptake in single microalgae cells with fluorescence tracking and computational modeling
Plastic products are essential for our daily life and underpin an expanding, multi-trillion-dollar global market across numerous industry sectors. However, the resulting plastic wa...
The Role of Glycosyl Ceramides in Heart Failure and Recovery
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Candidate: Eleni Tseliou, MD, PhD is cardiology fellow at the University of Utah (UU) in Salt Lake City as part of the Physician Scientist Training Program...
Collaborative Research: Broadening participation of marginalized scholars in STEM: The longitudinal influence of early-career climate experiences on professional pathways
Higher education has struggled to make meaningful progress in broadening the participation in STEM at all levels. Person-Environment Fit (PE Fit) research reveals that education an...

Predictive Functions and Neural Mechanisms of Spontaneous Cortical Activity
The mammalian cortex is spontaneously active even in the absence of external stimuli. Initially dismissed as neural noise, pioneering work established that the internal brain state...
MARC at Emory University
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This is a new Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) T34 to support undergraduate training at Emory University. The proposed training builds on an ex...
Development of Engineered Native Bacteria as a Tool for Functional Manipulation of the Gut Microbiome
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Most therapies that target microbiome composition do not have a detectable impact on the gut microbiome and are not robust to the interpersonal diversity a...

Immune determinants of pediatric HIV/SIV reservoir establishment and maintenance
ABSTRACT – Project 3 The overall objective of this Program project application is to generate a comprehensive understanding of the complex host-pathogen interactions critical for H...
Elucidating the gating mechanisms of bacterial mechanosensitive channels
Mechanosensitive (MS) channels sense and respond to mechanical forces by opening an ion-conducting pathway. MS channels are found in all kingdoms of life, and in humans play essent...
