Collaborative Research: A novel approach to study monomethylmercury in natural phytoplankton assemblages
Mercury (Hg) remains an important pollutant in the ocean despite international commitments to lower emissions. While all forms of mercury are toxic, monomethyl mercury (MMHg) is es...
Immune mechanisms that shape the blood brain barrier in people living with HIV and cocaine use disorder
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The blood brain barrier (BBB), formed by vascular endothelial and supporting cells, functions to regulate blood- brain exchange of substances and cells,...
Illuminating Brain Diseases Using Smart Multiread-out MRI
The brain is a black-box when it comes to understanding disease. It is full of crucial details that could give untold information on how to treat and manage neurological diseases a...
RUI: Chronometric Biosensors
Early detection and frequent monitoring of infectious disease and chemical threat agents are critical to safeguarding national health and security. Rapid point-of-care (POC) biosen...
Mastering charge-lattice interactions in novel semiconductors for renewable energy generation
Harvesting the energy of sunlight offers a realistic, clean and sustainable solution towards energy generation with net-zero carbon emissions. Such aspiration has created an urgent...
Digital Screening and Brief Intervention for Perinatal Substance Use in Home Visiting
Abstract The early postpartum period is a time of significant risk for escalating substance use (SU), as many people who reduce their SU during pregnancy return to pre-pregnancy...
A Phase 2a placebo-controlled, randomised, proof of concept trial to investigate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of psilocybin therapy in opioid use disorder (OUD).
Research Question Is psilocybin therapy (PT) a safe and effective way of promoting abstinence in individuals detoxed from opioids? Background Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) is a major...
Project ACCESS: Advancing Equitable Access to HIV/HCV Testing Through Structural Transformation in Syringe Services Programs: A Cluster Randomized Trial
1 ABSTRACT The National HIV Strategy encourages expansion of HIV testing to community health settings, emphasizing it is critical that all people, particularly high incidence gro...
Dual use of combustible and electronic cigarettes: A fine-grained naturalistic cohort study to investigate dynamic use patterns and trajectories that lead to smoking cessation
As the tobacco product landscape continues to shift, there has been a dramatic increase in poly-tobacco use, particularly the dual use of combustible and electronic (e-)cigarettes...
Analysis of a missense SNP in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor repressor gene that may disproportionately increase lung cancer risk in Black Americans
The parent grant studies a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor repressor (AHRR) gene that may influence the lung cancer risk of Black/African Ame...
Learning features of optimal CAR T cells for LBCL from patient data
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have emerged as breakthrough treatments for patients with hematologic malignancies, earning 12 approvals from the...
CAREER: Taming Networks in the Wild: A Safety-Centric Network Learning Framework
Despite recent successes, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has also shown to be lacking in areas such as safety. Therefore, it is imperative to prioritize safety as a fundamental aspec...
Conference: Cnidofest: A workshop on cnidarian model organism biology, August 14th-17th, Bethlehem, PA
The Cnidarian Model Systems Meeting, or "Cnidofest," is a biennial conference that brings together researchers studying cnidarians, a group of animals that includes jellyfish, cora...
First-in-class rationally designed inhibitors of the SUF-like pathway of iron-sulfur cluster biosynthesis for treating infections caused by S. aureus and other Gram-positive bacteria
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Antibiotic resistance is becoming increasingly catastrophic. Developing novel drugs that target essential ma- chinery in bacteria for which there is not...
Collaborative Research: Beyond fluorine: molecular-level understanding of the effect of bromination and chlorination on polymer membrane transport property and long-term stability
Conventional thermal-based chemical separation technologies, such as distillation and absorption, are highly energy inefficient, consuming about 8 GJ per person per year globally....
Empowering Safety: Hazardous Materials Awareness, Identification and Management
In the world of heritage science, a formidable challenge looms large - the effective management of hazards within collections. This challenge has remained largely unaddressed in th...
EMBRACE-EAR-Seed: Meltwater and Suspended Sediment in a Glaciated Volcanic Watershed
As glaciers retreat and rainfall patterns shift due to climate change, the sources of fine-grained sediment to glacially fed rivers are likely to change as well. The exact nature o...
Collaborative Research: Unraveling secrets of Rapid Ohi'a Death resistance: assessing carbohydrates and chemical defenses in the response of Hawaiian forests to a fungal pathogen
Invasive pathogens are an increasing threat to forests worldwide, causing tree mortality and reducing ecosystem health. To better predict the impact of pathogens on forests, fundam...
Predicting diversity and evolution of virulence / transmission in environmental opportunistic pathogens
Infectious diseases continue to place a substantial burden on human health, globally. Biomedical studies of diverse pathogens have led to a growing body of knowledge on how pathoge...
Alteration in bacterial cell envelope structure as the mechanism of antibiotic resistance and cell death
Antibiotic resistance is one of the major threats to human health with an estimated cost of $1 trillion by 2050 if not effectively combatted. Just in 2019, antibiotic resistant bac...
