Daniel Petras
Microbiology & Immunology
Identify hypoxia-sensitive microorganisms and oxygenase-dependent metabolic pathways by exposing marine microbial cultures to controlled oxygen levels and measuring gene transcription.
Ryan Julian
Chemistry
Design and synthesize photoactivated chemical modifiers that install a weak link at chosen residues in a protein backbone, so the protein can be split at that spot on demand.
Ioannis Karamouzas
Computer Science·Early-career
Build a constraint-based simulation framework that treats muscles, tendons, skeleton and environmental contacts as one coupled implicit system, for stable, physiologically realistic simulation of contact-rich human motion.
Pooja Flora
Biology·Early-career
Characterize how gene expression and chromatin accessibility change with age across the distinct stem cell pools of adult skin, including basal interfollicular epithelial stem cells and hair follicle bulge stem cells, using multi-omics profiling.
Scott Pegan
Microbiology & Immunology
Define how non-neutralizing monoclonal antibodies against GP38, a non-structural glycoprotein of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus, confer protection, using combined molecular, cell-based and animal approaches.
