The Bring BPaL2Me Trial - Comparing Nurse-Led RR-TB Treatment in Primary Care to Physician-Led, Hospital-Based RR-TB Treatment: A Cluster Randomized, Non-Inferiority Trial
In South Africa (SA), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) is managed within primary care clinics (PCCs), where nurses treat drug-susceptible TB and TB/HIV coinfection with treatment o...
Assessing the role of Type I Interferon (IFN-I) in Periodontal Disease
Project Summary Periodontitis, which results in irreversible damage in hard and soft tooth-supporting tissues, affects 42% US adults. This extremely prevalent inflammatory oral d...
Investigating subthreshold vestibular stimulation as a strategy for rehabilitation in individuals with bilateral vestibular hypofunction
1 Project Summary/Abstract 2 In individuals with bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH), vestibular responses to self-motion cues are reduced 3 bilaterally, often without a de...
Collaborative Research: Frameworks: Building a Collaboration Infrastructure: CyberWater2 -- A Sustainable Data/Model Integration Framework
Natural hazards, such as coastal and inland flooding caused by Hurricanes and severe drought and its associated wildfire, have been occurring with unprecedented frequency, induced...
Collaborative Research: Data-Driven Microreaction Engineering by Autonomous Robotic Experimentation in Flow
Existing experimental strategies often fail to comprehensively explore the reaction universe of new chemicals and materials created with multi-step synthesis procedures. Given the...

CAREER: ERASE-PFAS: Mechanistic Investigation of Thermal Decomposition of Poly- and Perfluoroalkyl Substances in the Soil Environment
The contamination of soil and water by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is a national concern. Certain PFAS chemicals have been detected in the blood of more than 95% of...
VET-Spirit: A Pilot Feasibility and Acceptability Trial to Address Spiritual Needs in Seriously-Ill Veterans
Background: Seriously-ill veterans rely on spiritual and existential beliefs to cope with their illness, support their quality of life, and make critical healthcare decisions. As...
MCA: Incorporating Carbon Use Efficiency into Strategies for Ecosystem Restoration
The central United States once contained the largest tallgrass prairie ecosystem on Earth. Through agricultural and urban development, most of this ecosystem - and the benefits it...

Point-of-care diagnostic test for T. cruzi (Chagas) infection
Project Summary Chagas disease, caused by infection with the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is the most prevalent parasitic disease in the western hemisphere, infecting 8-11 million...
Collaborative Research: EDGE CMT: Predicting the evolution of disease resistance across heterogeneous landscapes
Wildlife infectious diseases can cause extinctions and populations declines in animals, often also impacting public health. Sylvatic (better known as bubonic) plague was introduced...
Optimising UK Landscapes for Agroecosystem Resilience
The UK's withdrawal from the EU's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) provides an opportunity to enhance the resilience of agricultural landscapes. Agroecosystem resilience is interli...
Safe Lyapunov-Based Deep Neural Network Adaptive Control of a Rehabilitative Upper Extremity Hybrid Exoskeleton
Hand cycling and reaching activities are rehabilitative exercises for individuals with movement disorders. For those with insufficient strength to exercise by themselves, electrici...
GOALI: Integrated Oxidation Vapor-gap Reverse Osmosis Systems for Water Reuse
The American West is experiencing drought conditions worse than those seen in nearly a millennium. Securing reliable water supplies is therefore essential to ensuring the health an...
Evaluation of molecular point-of-care Xpert® Xpress SARS-CoV-2 detection implementation in resource limited settings (EXPERT-CoV2)
Background. Rapid diagnostic tests of individuals infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS–CoV-2) are the cornerstone to implement early case detection a...
Rational Design and Fundamental Understanding of Multimodal Amyloid Probes
The hallmark of many debilitating diseases, such as Alzeimer’s disease (AD) and type II diabetes (T2D), is the presence of abnormal masses/aggregates of proteins termed “amyloids”....
Organization of the early secretory pathway in vertebrates: the role of the Mia gene family.
The internal organization of every cell in our bodies is inherently linked to their function. We study the way in which the individual compartments (organelles) within cells relate...
