Labs here
Steven Kurtz
Biomedical Engineering
Develop and optimize a hybrid additive manufacturing process for carbon-fiber-reinforced polyaryletherketones, combining 3D printing with heat-and-pressure consolidation, using design of experiments.
Peter Baas
Neuroscience
Test whether lysosome-targeting intrabodies, antibody fragments made inside cells, effectively and sustainably deplete toxic mutant M1 spastin in hiPSC-derived motor cortical organoids without off-target toxicity.
Anneclaire J De Roos
Public Health & Epidemiology
Estimate associations between unregulated drinking-water contaminants such as 1,4-dioxane, PFAS, cobalt, chromium-6 and chlorate and cause-specific cancer mortality by linking federal water-system monitoring data to over three million adults in the Census Bureau's MDAC cohort.
Li-Hsin Han
Biomedical Engineering
Assess the translation and commercial potential of injectable, light-crosslinkable collagen microribbon scaffolds for knee cartilage repair through I-Corps experiential learning and first-hand study of the industry ecosystem.
Ekaterina Pomerantseva
Materials Science
Test whether chemically preintercalating ions between the layers of MXene-derived bilayered vanadium oxide widens the interlayer spacing and speeds up zinc ion movement in aqueous zinc-ion battery cathodes.
