RII Track 4: Heavy Element Isotopic Characterization of Stardust
This project will study microscopic stardust grains in the laboratory to find answers to the most fundamental question of the origin of elements in the Universe and to understand t...
CAREER: Chromatin Folding from the Bottom-up
Chromatin, the seemingly inert structure that packages the DNA, plays an active role in regulating gene expression. Multiple chromatin states with distinct patterns of histone modi...
RII Track 4: Isolating the Role of Metal Centers in the Capacitive Behavior of Porous Framework Electrodes
Electrodes exist in many of our pockets and briefcases (e.g., at either pole of a lithium-ion battery). These are typically based on a conductive material like graphite that has th...
EAGER International Type II: Inclusiveness and Diversity as Building Blocks of Resilient International Research Teams in the Age of COVID-19
Recent COVID-related events have significantly disrupted many international teams, especially those focused on basic and applied research in developing countries. Collaborative gro...
RII Track-4: Partnership Between the University of Wyoming and the Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory in Multi-Scale Wildland Fire Research
Wildland fire modeling entails prediction of ignition, spread, emissions, and other fire characteristics. Accurate predictive modeling can lead to better land management decisions,...
CAREER: Engineering MSC Progenitors using Dielectrophoresis for Better Cell Therapies
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) act as a self-repair system in the body. MSC's have the unique ability to change into a variety of different cells, and they can support our immu...
CAREER: Illuminating structure-property relationships in energy storage materials via quantitative light microscopy
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY.Renewable energy capacity is increasing and expected to meet global energy demand this century. Existing technology will thus ensure the generation of clean,...
Improving Quantitative Reasoning through General Education Science Courses
This project aims to serve the national interest by exploring how general education science classes affect undergraduate students’ numerical skills and attitudes about mathematics....
CAREER: Biochemical and Structural Mechanism of the WASH Regulatory Complex
Like a city, the cell is filled with heavy traffic. Cellular traffic is made up of tiny parcels called vesicles that contain molecules to be sent to their correct destinations. Mov...
Collaborative Research: Photochemical Silicon Aerosols: Establishing Atmospheric Sources and Significance
This research is focused on improving the understanding of the chemical and physical transformations of volatile methyl siloxanes (VMS) in the atmosphere. Volatile methyl siloxanes...
SBIR Phase I: Optimizing black soldier fly genetics and husbandry for industrialization of organic waste bioconversion
The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is in promoting insect protein as an alternative source of protein for animal feed with a consi...
RII Track-4: Ecological Community Responses to Global Change: Predicting Effects on Community Dynamics and Ecosystem Stability
This Research Infrastructure Improvement RII Track-4 grant will explore how ecological communities respond to increased environmental change, with a focus on alpine ecosystems. Glo...
CAREER: Solution‐based, Continuous Manufacturing of User‐friendly, On‐Skin Electronics for Customized Health‐Monitoring
This Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) grant supports the fundamental studies necessary to achieve solution-based, continuous manufacturing of user-friendly, on-skin electr...
SBIR Phase I: Capsule Pipeline for Reservoir De-silting and for Mining
The broader impacts of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to support reservoir de-silting. The nation has a number of dams and reservoirs to produce...
Molecular Mechanisms of Protein Association with Plastoglobule Lipid Droplets
This project will explore the mechanisms of protein association with plastoglobules, lipid droplets that exist in the photosynthetic compartment of plant cells. Accumulated evidenc...
EAGER-Indigenous Geoscience Community
The Indigenous Geoscience Community proposes to bring together diverse Indigenous communities in an environment that will strengthen individuals, communities, and academia and prof...
CAREER: Principled Deep Reinforcement Learning for Societal Systems
The recent breakthrough in deep reinforcement learning (RL), especially its superhuman-level performance in board and video games, e.g., Go, Atari, Dota, and StarCraft, opens up ne...
Doctoral Dissertation Research in DRMS: The effects of weight status and sleep duration on adolescent cognitive functioning and food choice
Obesity represents one of our nation’s leading public health issues. In 2017, over 30% of U.S. high school students had either overweight (15.6%) or obesity (14.8%), and the averag...
Collaborative Research: Quantifying Seasonal and Interannual Changes in Shelf-Derived Material Inputs to the Arctic Ocean: The Arctic Radium Isotope Observing Network (ARION)
Within the Arctic Circle, rapidly rising air and sea temperatures have resulted in the loss of sea ice, increased river discharge, coastal erosion, and permafrost thaw. Many of the...
Understanding Heat-transfer Regimes in Past, Present and Future Climates
The Earth's climate is a product of heat transfer, as the warming effect of heat energy gains, including the latent heat released in precipitation, must over time be balanced...
