Teresa Rapp
Chemistry
Develop photocleavable crosslinkers based on ruthenium polypyridyl complexes, light-sensitive metal compounds, that work across many different biomaterial supports.
Matthew Barber
Microbiology & Immunology
Test how rapid evolution of cell-surface receptors on animal and bacterial cells changes bacterial colonization and immune evasion, combining phylogenetic analysis with biochemistry and cell biology.
Wendy Hadley
Psychology
Develop the classroom and teacher components of iTRAC+, a digital emotion regulation program for middle schoolers, together with an expert panel and community partners, and identify ways to strengthen teacher and school engagement.
Lila Wollman
Physiology·Early-career
Test how 48 hours of nicotine withdrawal changes the breathing response to 10, 12, or 15% oxygen in adult rats using plethysmography, and whether a single acute nicotine dose restores the blunted response.
Carl Brozek
Chemistry·Early-career
Determine how nanoparticle identity shapes the structure and motion of the electrical double layer, the ion layers at a particle's surface, using vibrational sum-frequency scattering spectroscopy (VSFSS) on porous and nonporous colloids.
