Leverage nanopore sequencing to analyze environmental DNA (eDNA) from two contrasting yet equally rich habitats to uncover the hidden communities

Addresses the gaps in how children regulate behavior, attention, and emotions through wearable sensing technologies, classroom audio, and artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods.

Blends bioinformatics, computational modeling, quantum computing, and wet-lab pharmacology to develop targeted small-molecule inhibitors that disrupt mitoMiR maturation and impair tumor survival.

Uses personal storytelling of veterans with dogs to investigate how creative expression influences biopsychosocial health, resilience, well-being, and social connection.

Florida’s coastal destinations face overlapping pressures from overtourism, resident–visitor tension, and climate-related hazards (e.g., extreme heat, red tide).

Why do brains slow down with age? We think astrocytes, support cells that feed and protect neurons, hold key answers.

Our AI assistant will extract key risk factors from notes and reports, converting them into actionable, plain-language insights that support evidence-based decisions.

Alzheimer’s disease involves the buildup of a protein fragment called amyloid-beta (Aβ).
