Mark Graham
Education Research
Identify which teaching practices in SEA-PHAGES courses, where students discover bacteria-infecting viruses, build student trust, buy-in and persistence in STEM, using mixed-methods study of instructors and administrators.
Mark Gerstein
Computer Science
Develop statistical, information-theoretic measures of private information leaked from functional genomics data, testing linking attacks built from variants called from raw reads, signal profiles, Hi-C matrices and expression matrices.
Yasmin Zakiniaeiz
Neuroscience·Early-career
Measure baseline dopamine D2/3 receptor levels in the prefrontal cortex of men and women with alcohol use disorder and sex-matched controls, using PET imaging with the radiotracer [11C]FLB457.
Maureen Long
Earth & Environmental Science
Image the New England crust at high resolution using hundreds of nodal seismometers spaced 500 m apart, analyzing both distant earthquake waves and background seismic noise to reveal how supercontinent cycles and mountain-building shaped it.
Dibyadeep Datta
Neuroscience
Define the spatial relationship between pT217Tau, an early blood and spinal fluid marker of Alzheimer's, endosome enlargement and APP/Aβ42 in postmortem human brains across Braak stages, using quantitative immunofluorescence in vulnerable and resistant cortical regions.
