Justin Caram
Chemistry
Determine how ligand symmetry, denticity and electronic structure control the linewidths and oscillator strengths of f-to-f transitions in lanthanide complexes, starting with ytterbium compounds.
Tiwei Wei
Engineering
Design photonic waveguide layouts, tiny light channels built into a 3D packaging test vehicle, that preserve strong micro-Raman scattering signals without altering the local thermal and mechanical environment.
Joann Elmore
Medicine & Clinical Research
Run a two-year pragmatic randomized trial of more than 154,000 3D screening mammograms assigned to interpretation with or without an FDA-cleared AI tool, measuring cancer detection and recall rates across 16 breast imaging facilities.
Alexander Young
Psychology
Assess the commercial translation potential of an interactive patient data tracking platform for mental health through customer discovery and firsthand investigation of the industry ecosystem.
Jaime Marian
Materials Science
Determine how 'necklace' microstructures nucleate at grain boundaries during dynamic recrystallization in body-centered-cubic refractory multi-principal element alloys, using mesoscale modeling.
