Seth Newsome
Ecology & Evolution
Test whether gut microbes in wild banner-tailed kangaroo rats make essential amino acids and short-chain fatty acids that hosts absorb, using compound-specific isotope tracing and metatranscriptomics.
Heng Zuo
Engineering·Early-career
Determine how ultrafast laser energy deposition, thermal confinement, chemical transformation, and stress development combine to convert preceramic polymers into polymer-derived ceramics.
Dongchang Chen
Chemistry
Identify which large oligomer molecules, formed when carbonate ester solvents link together, populate the solid-electrolyte and cathode-electrolyte interphases, using MALDI mass spectrometry on a series of model electrodes.
Lomeli Shull
Biology·Early-career
Define how Prdm3 and Prdm16 regulate Wnt/β-catenin signaling, a pathway that steers cell fate, in cartilage cells during zebrafish craniofacial development using molecular, genetic and epigenetic tools.
Ryan Huebinger
Public Health & Epidemiology·Early-career
Build statistical models using a cardiac arrest registry to determine whether racial, ethnic and socioeconomic differences in post-arrest hospital care and outcomes arise between hospitals or within them.
