RAPID: Mathematical models for uncovering neurological disorders among the U.S. population infected with COVID-19
The COVID-19 virus has been statistically linked to specific medical disorders connected to the brain and nervous system.Although in the past a fraction of SARS and MER patients ha...
Impact of Sleep Duration on Immune Balance in Urban Children with Asthma
Project Summary / Abstract Urban children with asthma are at high risk for short sleep, due to an environment that jeopardizes sleep and asthma management. Further, this group suff...
Collaborative Research: Synthetic and Systems Biology Approaches to Semi-synthetic Cells with Expanded DNA Alphabets
This project focuses on novel forms of DNA that are not built only from the standard four nucleotides found in natural DNA, but with two or four additional nucleotides, to form an...
Breast cancer neoadjuvant endocrine therapy during the Covid-19 pandemic: Opportunity for a new treatment paradigm?
Neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (NET; pre-surgical treatment with an anti-endocrine drug) has been suggested as a promising support system for addressing surgical delays among breast...

Mechanisms of axial elongation in myopia
The prevalence of myopia has rapidly increased over the last 30-years, becoming epidemic in many countries. Myopia occurs when the eye’s focal plane falls in front of the retina du...
Pubertal hormone levels differentially modulate the neural circuits implicated in emotion dysregulation in youth with psychopathology
Project Summary/Abstract: Research Project (4) Pubertal hormone levels differentially modulate the neural circuits implicated in emotion dysregulation in youth with psychopathology...
Nucleus accumbens fast-spiking interneurons regulate opioid reward and addiction
Project Abstract Opioid addiction is a public health crisis, characterized by compulsive drug seeking and a pervasive vulnerability to relapse, with few therapeutic options availab...
MRI-Based Regional Assessment of Cerebral Metabolism Via 3D Quantitative BOLD
PROJECT SUMMARY Quantitative assessment of brain oxygen metabolism, usually expressed in terms of cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2), can provide important information on ma...
Dynamics of Cellular Brain Metabolism Using Mass Spectrometry Imaging
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Brain function demands a lot of metabolic energy, often in brief, local bursts. The ability of each brain cell’s metabolic machinery to respond to this ene...
Genomewide association studies in peri-implant bone loss
Project Summary/Abstract: Dental implants revolutionized dentistry. Unfortunately, implants have complications over time, including peri- implantitis (PI). PI affects 45% of patien...
The contribution of adult child socio-economic status to parents' risk and outcomes of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRDs) in cross-national settings
Globally, nearly 10 million older adults are diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRDs) each year. Given the current absence of effective pharmacological trea...
Fetal MRI: robust self-driving brain acquisition and body movement quantification
PROJECT SUMMARY/ ABSTRACT Our premise is that the fetal stage of human brain development is the most dynamic, the most vulnerable and the most important for lifelong behavioral and...
Novel HCV vaccine antigens and nanoparticles
Project Summary Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects 1-2% of the world population and poses a significant threat to public health. Recent studies have identified a panel of broadly neut...

RII Track-4: NSF: Does warming-driven root damage lead to drought stress in declining yellow-cedar trees?
Yellow-cedar (Callitropsis nootkatensis) is now experiencing widespread dieback in the temperate rainforests of northwestern North America. Significant evidence supports the idea t...
Collaborative Research: Does responding to stressors prime greater resilience? Testing the long-term effects of challenges on behavior, physiology, epigenetic state, and fitness.
When faced with a major challenge – severe weather, the attack of a predator, an injury – organisms mount a coordinated physiological and behavioral stress response. This response...
Function of T cells at the Maternal-Fetal Interface
Project Summary: Over the past five years, the leading cause of death worldwide for children under five has been complications from preterm birth (PTB) (
