Labs here
Brian Hermann
Biology
Identify small molecules that bind RBM46, the germ-cell-specific RNA-binding protein required for sperm production, through drug screening, and advance the best binders as starting points for targeted degraders.
Matthew Troia
Ecology & Evolution·Early-career
Measure acute cold and heat tolerance, acclimation potential, and energy budgets in three tropical and three related temperate freshwater fishes. Use these lab experiments to test whether tropical and temperate species differ in thermal physiology.
Fred Martin
Education Research
Document current understandings, policies and practices for using and teaching AI literacy in partner middle school districts in Texas and New York, working with teachers and technology coaches.
Philipp Schmidpeter
Biophysics
Identify membrane lipids that modulate TRP ion channel activity, using cell-based experiments designed for the membrane environment.
Eva Wikberg
Ecology & Evolution
Analyze relationships between pairs of individuals in a human social network that shares space with a non-human primate species, using mixed-method ethnographic data.
