Mark Grimes
Biomedical Engineering
Test whether seeding human neural crest stem cells in 3D hydrogel scaffolds with extracellular matrix components identified in organoids makes craniofacial cartilage faster and more reproducibly than self-organizing organoids.
Amitava Roy
Biology
Run three two-week Advanced Studies Institutes in Singapore (2025–2027) that train U.S. graduate students in computational genomics, in silico ligand–protein interaction and biomolecular structure and dynamics, centered on one system such as the glucocorticoid receptor.
Christopher Palmer
Chemistry
Design and synthesize liquid chromatography stationary phases that retain molecules through halogen bonding, using well-characterized halogen bond donors in monodentate (one-site) and bidentate (two-site) forms.
