Vincent Tagliabracci
Biochemistry
Test whether mammalian ACAD10 and its related gene ACAD11 make ether lipids, building on the finding that ACAD10's kinase and phosphatase parts carry out missing steps of this pathway in C. elegans.
Benjamin Levi
Medicine & Clinical Research
Map lymphatic vessels around skeletal and heterotopic bone after injury in mice, and test whether blocking VEGFR3-driven lymphatic growth worsens heterotopic ossification.
Zhenyu Zhong
Medicine & Clinical Research
Define how obesity-associated loss of nerve–immune communication in the liver contributes to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), using complementary mouse models and human liver specimens.
Sarah Woods
Public Health & Epidemiology
Test in a randomized controlled trial whether Walk Together, four dyadic patient-plus-family sessions over eight weeks, improves hypertension self-management adherence and blood pressure control more than a hypertension education control.
Joachim Seemann
Biology
Identify and characterize the RNA–golgin scaffolds that link Golgi stacks into a ribbon, focusing on how the golgin GM130 recruits RNA to Golgi membranes, using biochemical and microscopy approaches.
