Renjie Wang
Chemistry
Measure how commonly encountered PFAS molecules bind nucleic acids of varying base composition, testing whether binding preference tracks with carbon-chain length and chemical functional group.
Wolfgang Tichy
Astronomy & Astrophysics
Simulate binary neutron star mergers containing dark matter across a range of dark matter fractions, particle masses, mass ratios and spins with the BAM code, to set limits on dark matter in neutron stars.
Srinivasa Subramaniam
Neuroscience
Identify the protein and RNA components on ribosomes that interact with mutant huntingtin (mHTT), the toxic protein that causes Huntington disease, using biochemical approaches.
Jason Mireles-James
Mathematics & Statistics
Extend high-order computational methods for hyperbolic invariant objects to the parabolic case, where nearby trajectories separate slowly, in Hamiltonian systems.
Maciej Stawikowski
Chemistry
Design and synthesize environment-sensitive fluorescent cholesterol probes (CNDs) built on a 1,8-naphthalimide dye, using computational chemistry to tune their properties for different imaging uses.
