Francois Monard
Mathematics & Statistics
Unify three complex-analytic methods for X-ray transforms, including transport twistor space, to derive exact reconstruction formulas in curved (Riemannian and non-Euclidean) geometries.
Alvaro Cardenas
Computer Science
Build a canonical, longitudinal dataset of high-impact research software that links repositories to dependencies, downstream users, contributors, affiliations, funding sources, scholarly use, and documented security events.
Upasna Sharma
Biology
Determine whether Mettl7a1, a predicted RNA methyltransferase that adds methyl tags to RNA, is needed for minor zygotic genome activation and normal early development in mouse preimplantation embryos.
Carl Lamborg
Earth & Environmental Science
Characterize zooplankton communities along the central and western Aleutian Islands at sites with known differences in mercury levels in marine life, combining oceanography and genomics.
Sangwon Hyun
Mathematics & Statistics
Develop computationally efficient mixture of neural network models that automatically classify flow cytometry cell data while accounting for environmental covariates, applied to over 100 Pacific and Atlantic cruises.
