Carlos Moro
Engineering
Determine how nanoscale additives change the crystal type, growth and distribution of calcium carbonate formed when cement-based materials are exposed to carbon dioxide, across different stages of carbonation.
Ryan Peterson
Microbiology & Immunology
Identify and characterize the copper-binding metallophore that Pseudogymnoascus destructans secretes under copper limitation, testing the hypothesis that it is an opine-based metallophore, a class previously known only in bacteria.
Mylene Queiroz De Farias
Computer Science
Design a feature-extraction architecture for dynamic point clouds that jointly captures geometry, texture and motion, using visual transformers and multimodal fusion with temporal awareness and adaptive projection strategies.
Wilson Espinoza
Earth & Environmental Science
Measure how the strength of individual minerals contributes to overall rock strength, using nanoscale experiments on mineral interactions.
Ariful Haque
Materials Science
Grow uniform, delamination-free diamond films on gallium oxide (Ga2O3) by first forming an ultrathin quenched carbon (Q-carbon) interlayer through pulsed laser annealing.
