The RISE (RCT for Innovating Stress-related eHealth) Study is a first-in-kind research endeavor exploring the efficacy of a smartphone-based intervention designed to prevent the onset of posttraumatic stress symptoms, depression, anxiety, and pain after sexual assault. We highly value our … Read more

The ReGaiN (Rehabilitation of Gait and Neurorehabilitation) is looking for a few research assistants to assist with biomechanics data processing (Vicon motion capture, C-Motion Visual3D, NI Labview, MATLAB& Simulink) and the potential to assist with live data collections. We are … Read more

How do new species form? The formation of new species – ‘speciation’ – is still not fully understood, and remains a fruitful avenue of research. Here, we propose to investigate the implication of the evolution of genetic architecture (i.e., the … Read more

We engage in collaborative learning, shared mentorship, research training and advanced research, professional development through workshops and internship opportunities, consulting with global companies, and a variety of forms of public-facing education, publication, and community engagement around various topics in Japanese … Read more

Study the roles of Genetic/environmental factors in preeclampsia (pregnancy induced maternal syndromes). Learn basic techniques of molecular biology such as PCR, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry etc.

We study how the NuRD complex contributes to the silencing of fetal hemoglobin. My lab uses a combination of structural biology, biophysics, and tissue culture assays to understand how proteins bind to one another and to DNA. Our goal is … Read more

We are looking for an undergraduate to continue advancing computational tools for optimization and design. The project has been advanced significantly by two previous undergraduates and has a good code base, but code development and enhancement will be a key … Read more

Motivated undergraduate students are invited to join our Lab, the Neurocognition and Imaging Research Laboratory (NIRL) to conduct electrophysiological data acquisition for research projects. Our research examines the neurobiological underpinnings of adolescent-onset neuropsychiatric disorders using electrophysiological recordings. The student will … Read more

Motivated undergraduate students are invited to join our Lab, the Neurocognition and Imaging Research Laboratory (NIRL) to learn functional and structural brain imaging and electrophysiological data acquisition methods. Our research examines the neurobiological underpinnings of adolescent-onset neuropsychiatric disorders, using magnetic … Read more

Research in the Lai Lab is at the interface of mucus, immunology, nanotechnology, biomaterials, biophysics, bioengineering and modeling. We are currently working in three primary areas: (1) engineering antibodies for improved protection against pathogens and sperm at mucosal surfaces; (2) … Read more
