Jenna Gorlewicz
Engineering
Build the core content platform for Inclusio, a system that takes graphics in many data formats and outputs them to web and mobile apps, braille and tactile embossers, multimodal touchpads, and refreshable tactile displays.
Gucan Dai
Biophysics
Determine how the voltage-sensing domain of hyperpolarization-activated HCN pacemaker channels moves during activation, including its intermediate conformations, using patch-clamp fluorometry on channels expressed in human cell lines.
Bernard Rousseau
Medicine & Clinical Research
Quantify how methylprednisolone, a glucocorticoid steroid drug, changes the permeability of the vocal fold epithelial barrier, using in vitro experiments.
Ranjit Ray
Microbiology & Immunology
Test whether introducing discrete point mutations into the hepatitis C virus E2 envelope protein, blocking its binding to the cell-surface receptor CD81, prevents E2 from suppressing immune cell function.
Brent Znosko
Biochemistry
Derive improved nearest neighbor parameters, energy values that prediction programs use, from optical melting experiments on RNA secondary structure motifs to better predict RNA stability and folding from sequence.
