Alireza Vahid
Engineering
Develop algorithms that recover sets of similar gene sequences from unordered DNA sequencing reads, to detect antimicrobial resistance genes in microbial communities.
Lingwei Chen
Computer Science
Repurpose pretrained transformer models for cyberattack detection through cross-modal adversarial reprogramming, which adds patch-level changes to inputs so few new parameters are needed when labeled data are scarce.
Pratik Dholabhai
Materials Science·Early-career
Build a multiscale computational framework for the CaO + CO2 ⇌ CaCO3 looping cycle, and validate it with atomic-resolution and in situ gas-cell transmission electron microscopy, which images reactions as they happen.
Matthew Wright
Computer Science
Study how users evaluate suspect digital content through qualitative interviews and user studies, and use the findings to integrate multiple AI-content forensic tools into one navigable platform.
M Mustafa Rafique
Computer Science
Develop composable providers that capture and assemble checkpoints of distributed data structures across modules and programming languages, arranging the saved data to remove redundancy and reduce size.
