Non-technical abstract:This career program seeks to integrate materials science, biology, and chemistry to elucidate the role of hydrogen phosphate on the dissolution of bone, an i...
The Arctic and subarctic are experiencing significant environmental shifts from rapid climate change induced warming. The goal of this project is to bring together local organizati...
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of an energy recovery system capable of converting waste heat energy in the form of excess vapor...
This project's vision is to encourage sustainable mobility habits that can take advantage of new mobility services. There are enormous debates over whether emerging mobility s...
The US government invests $1 billion annually in hazard mitigation, but the resilience investment gap for the US is estimated to exceed $520 billion. The resilience gap across diff...
Adult language learning is of primary social importance, but most research has overlooked the influences of the linguistic environment of the learner and of previous language histo...
Compositionality, the principle that the meaning of a complex expression is built from the meanings of its parts, is central to human language. This property enables us to produce...
An award is made to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) to establish a dedicated laboratory for the isolation of ancient DNA and proteins preserved in biological tissues...
Plants defend themselves against attack by herbivorous (plant-eating) insects in many ways. For example, they make chemical poisons and construct mechanical defenses, like thorns....
Composite structures have increasingly emerged for aerospace and other applications because of their high strength-to-weight ratio, good resistance to harsh environments, and great...
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of technologies capable of increasing the crop yield and growth efficiency of certain high-value...
This project will address the national need for skilled scientists and mathematicians by increasing the recruitment, retention, and graduation of academically talented, low-income...
Interacting particle systems with random dynamics are fundamental for modeling phenomena in the physical and social sciences. Such systems can be used to describe chemical reaction...
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of a technology that can convert yard trimmings disposed as municipal solid waste (MSW; 35 millio...
This project will contribute to the national need for skilled scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and technicians. It will do so by supporting the retention and graduation of hi...
This grant, a joint endeavor of the University of Chicago, the Metropolitan Planning Council (MPC), and Brookings Institution, will fund a new set of indicators that will help peop...
Every year, hundreds of thousands of undergraduate students participate in an Introduction to Behavioral Neuroscience course. This gateway course, offered by Neuroscience, Psycholo...
Where we find species living today reflects not only how and when their direct ancestors evolved, but also where they evolved. The inseparable relationship between geological and e...
Non-Technical Summary:Polymers are pervasive in society – from plastic bottles to fingerprint resistant coatings on cell-phone screens, these materials are a critical component of...
The research enabled by this CAREER award will advance the physics of X-ray laser production by studying a method that utilizes interactions between an electron beam and a plasma s...
