Jasmin Cloutier
Psychology
Compare brain activity, measured with functional MRI, while people form first impressions of human versus artificial intelligence (AI) partners.
Jessica Tanis
Biology
Characterize newly found genes needed to produce distinct extracellular vesicle (EV) subtypes from the cilia of C. elegans male tail sensory neurons, using genetics and live imaging of fluorescently tagged EV cargoes.
Christina Barbieri
Education Research
Compile a database of math learning and outcome data from successful interventions in grades 4–10, covering more than 3,500 students and 700,000 work samples with detailed accuracy and strategy-error records.
Shuo Wei
Biochemistry
Test how cleavage of ephrinB proteins by ADAM family cell-surface proteases alters downstream Eph receptor signaling and cell-cell adhesion, using engineered uncleavable ephrinB mutants carrying mutated ADAM cleavage sites.
Roxana Burciu
Neuroscience
Test whether people with Parkinson's disease show altered brain activity during isometric two-handed force tasks compared with healthy older adults, using functional MRI.
