AccelNet Implementation: International Network For Researching, Advancing and Assessing Materials for Environmental Sustainability (INFRAMES)
The history of civilization is often described by the materials used: the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, the Age of Plastics, and the Silicon Age. Materials shape our ar...
URofL:EN: Does re-wilding lead to re-wiring of gene expression and species interaction networks?
Evolution is at the root of many socially important problems and solutions. Infectious diseases evolve resistance to drugs or escape vaccines. Tumors evolve to exploit their host’s...
NRI/Collaborative Research: Robot-Assisted Feeding: Towards Efficient, Safe, and Personalized Caregiving Robots
The goal of this project is to develop caregiving robots that can provide long-term assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) to people with mobility limitations. Despite g...
Mechanisms of fat regulation by conserved anti-obesity genes
Obesity affects a majority of American adults, with diverse and significant detrimental effects on human health. Despite a major role for genetic background in obesity, only a sma...
III: Small: Integrated prediction of intrinsic disorder and disorder functions with modular multi-label deep learning
Proteins are remarkable biological machines. Hundreds of millions of protein sequences were decoded over the last two decades creating a significant knowledge gap related to the fa...
Mechanobiology-based medicine
Nowadays diagnosis is largely enabled by the identification of molecular markers associated with the onset of a pathological state. Nevertheless, many diseases escape this paradigm...
Investigating how alternative splicing processes affect cartilage biology from development to old age
Alternative RNA splicing (AS) and alternative polyadenylation (AP) are two essential mechanisms for the post-transcriptional control of gene expression in eukaryotes. Over 95% of m...
