Mechanisms of Prophage-Mediated Virulence Driving Community-Acquired MRSA Contagion
PROJECT SUMMARY Community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) is known to cause severe bacterial infections and spreads rapidly, creating outbreaks that...
A new mouse model of severe asthma
Project Summary Severe asthma comprises ~10% of all asthma cases but accounts for a disproportionately high degree of asthma health care costs and causes substantial decrements in...
IUCRC Phase III Pennsylvania State University (PSU): Manufacturing and Materials Joining Innovation Center (Ma2JIC)
The Manufacturing and Materials Joining Innovation Center (Ma2JIC) is a multi-university consortium focused on materials joining and metal additive manufacturing research. The Cent...
Cold Fog Amongst Complex Terrain (CFACT)
The project, Cold Fog Amongst Complex Terrain (CFACT), is to investigate cold fog formation in mountain valleys. Fog consists of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in th...
Characterizing resilience to food-cue induced overeating in children
Project Summary: While strong empirical evidence shows that exposure to food advertisements increases short-term food intake and contributes to the development of obesity, not all...
The Nathan Schnaper Intern Program in Translational Cancer Research
Significant progress in detection and treatment has reduced cancer mortality rates; however, with over 1.7 million new cases and 600,000 deaths from cancer reported in 2019, it rem...
Supporting Tailored Adaptive Change and Reinforcement for Medication Adherence Program (STAR-MAP): Randomized trial of a novel approach to improve adherence in older hypertensive women and men
Project summary There is a fundamental gap in the availability of interventions that 1) sustainably improve adherence to pre- scribed blood pressure (BP) medications, 2) identify u...
Genetic and Neuronal Mechanisms that Regulate Zebrafish Sleep
ABSTRACT Sleep disorders are pervasive, contribute to morbidity in several psychiatric disorders, and cause an annual economic burden of $100 billion. However, despite its importan...

Telemedicine for Pediatric Sickle Cell Care in Medically Underserved Communities
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most common inherited hematologic disease. Studies have shown that comprehensive medical care can decrease adverse outcomes associated with SCD, bu...
Applying pathomics to establish a biosignature for aggressive skin melanoma
PROJECT SUMMARY We propose to develop a pathomics biosignature for aggressive melanoma to guide treatment decisions for patients who have had a melanoma surgically removed but rema...
