Anna Konova
Neuroscience
Test whether experimentally induced craving shifts the brain's drug-specific value signals in 89 patients with opioid use disorder, using a value-based choice task during fMRI with craving and control sessions.
Michinari Nakamura
Physiology
Determine whether increased Bcl-xS, a short form of the Bcl2l1 protein, in the spleen protects against heart inflammation and obesity cardiomyopathy, using Bcl-xS knockout mice on a high-fat diet.
Anat Kreimer
Genetics
Develop methods that integrate massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) data, which test thousands of DNA sequences at once, with other genomic assays and deep learning to reconstruct cell-type-specific gene regulatory networks and their condition-specific regulators.
Hillary Samples
Public Health & Epidemiology
Assess trends from 2016-2025 in near-fatal and fatal overdose events among Medicaid-enrolled youth aged 12-29, broken out by drugs involved and intent and by age group spanning early adolescence through early adulthood.
Amin Reihani
Engineering·Early-career
Map electron and lattice (phonon) temperatures separately within individual metal nanoparticles under plasmonic light excitation, using Two-Temperature Scanning Thermal Microscopy with nanometer resolution.
