Aaron Aponick
Chemistry
Identify Pd(II)-StackPhos catalysts, palladium paired with a chiral imidazole-based biaryl ligand, that give high mirror-image selectivity in alkene 1,2-difunctionalization for both syn- and anti-addition.
Ting Zhang
Mathematics & Statistics
Develop change-point tests that stay powerful when the post-change signal varies unpredictably, using a causal representation framework and Gaussian approximation to set statistically sound alarm thresholds.
Karen Johnson
Public Health & Epidemiology
Test in a randomized controlled trial whether E-WORTH South increases PrEP uptake and reduces condomless vaginal and anal sex acts at 6 months among 230 women aged 18–65 under non-carceral correctional supervision in two Alabama counties.
Robert Schmitz
Genetics
Map accessible chromatin at single-cell resolution across multiple maize genetic backgrounds to identify cell-type-specific regulatory regions and transcription factor binding events.
Karen Norris
Microbiology & Immunology
Test whether the NXT-2 vaccine, a lab-made peptide based on a fungal protein shared across species, triggers strong immune responses in nonhuman primates.
