Sara Cahan
Education Research
Create INVEST, a university-wide initiative at the University of Vermont that provides training and resources to turn laboratory discoveries into practical applications, products and tools.
Mary Tierney
Plant Science & Agriculture
Compare the proteins that make up and associate with the Retriever recycling complex in Arabidopsis thaliana and the moss Physcomitrium patens, using proximity labeling from the subunits VPS29, VPS26C, and CCDC22.
Yvonne M. W. Janssen-Heininger
Biochemistry
Determine whether the enzyme GSTP drives glutathionylation of OTUB1 and keeps KRT8-high transitional lung cells from maturing into AT1 cells, using a clinically tested GSTP inhibitor and IPF patient organoids.
Amanda Kallen
Genetics
Chart the ovarian aging process in genetically diverse Collaborative Cross mouse strains with low Anti-Müllerian hormone and reduced fertility by measuring ovarian reserve, hormones, follicle development and molecular aging markers.
Leigh Knodler
Microbiology & Immunology
Determine whether nine genes in the 40-kilobase type III secretion gene cluster on the Providencia alcalifaciens plasmid drive invasion of host cells, combining computational prediction, in vitro biochemistry and infection of cultured non-phagocytic cells.
