Ariane De Bremond
Earth & Environmental Science
Coordinate land system science worldwide through the Global Land Programme office by setting research agendas, leading synthesis of place-based case studies, and supporting core methods in modeling, monitoring and case study research.
Yiping Qi
Plant Science & Agriculture
Establish a shoot apical meristem-based transformation method that works across multiple wild and domesticated einkorn wheat accessions, measuring delivery and germline transmission with GFP and RUBY reporters.
Jennifer Stowell
Public Health & Epidemiology
Quantify how preconception and prenatal exposure to extreme heat and wildfire smoke PM2.5 affects risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, using Cox regression within a distributed lag nonlinear framework on about 6.5 million births in claims data.
Min Ouyang
Chemistry
Establish chemical principles for making ligand-free, all-inorganic chiral hybrid nanostructures that combine plasmonic, excitonic and spin functions in a single particle.
Dana Dachman-Soled
Computer Science
Construct deterministic randomness extractors, which turn imperfect random sources into high-quality random bits, for efficiently samplable weak sources, including low-entropy classical and quantum sources and sources subject to leakage.
