Help us understand how the brain develops and communicates to support functions like thinking, reasoning, emotional states. We will achieve this by creating scripts, running analyses, and producing meaningful data from a range of projects and participant pools. Ideal candidates … Read more
We are interested in discovering biomarkers across neuro-diseases, exploring how variations in the genome change the structure and development of the brain, and establishing neuro-biolgical basis to visualize the pathophysiological mechanisms of neuro-diseases using data-driven approach. The NIRAL Lab is … Read more
The Physical Mathematics Lab (PML) offers a wide range of interdisciplinary problems that find motivation in very diverse fields, including soft matter, fluid mechanics, biophysics and quantum mechanics. One of PML???s themes is the study of new Hydrodynamic Quantum Analogs … Read more
Collaborating with science teachers at low-income schools, we develop innovative technologies to improve science learning for students underrepresented in science, including linguistically diverse students and ethnic minorities. We focus on designing real-time, automated feedback for students and dashboards for science … Read more
Assistant will help research building namesakes and design public history displays. This fund helps create public history displays for buildings and other sites. Please send a resume and cover letter.
Students will learn to program complex Qualtrics surveys, to review procedures for tracking and administering surveys in this population, and working with caseworkers at LLS-MN to prepare for data collection. We are working on multiple projects, including an evaluation of … Read more
The Biomedical Image Analysis Group (BIAG) within the department of computer science offers various research opportunities for undergraduate students. We focus on designing algorithms to extract quantitative measures from biomedical data, in particular, from images (e.g., from computed tomography, magnetic … Read more
Light interacting with a material can provide a wide range of information about its electronic and chemical structure. In the Atkin group, we develop and use optical techniques to understand how nanoscale structure affects the performance of molecular and inorganic … Read more
My current research project is a book on the Great Siege of Malta (to be published by Penguin). The book will not only, or mainly, be a narrative of events; it will also examine the nature of the evidence at … Read more
We are creating a miniature duel microscope that can be used to study functional connectivity in the brain. This will open new doors in approaches to studying neuroscience and optics. Your part of the project will involve reverse engineering C++ … Read more
