Infectious diseases in animals can cause many problems such as impacting the economy, harming wildlife and the environment, food security, and even making people sick (zoonoses). Because of issues like pollution, climate change, and agricultural intensification, we expect these diseases to happen more often and to be worse over time. So, it is very important […]

Precision measurements of the Hydrogen 1s-2s energy transition are key to verifying theoretical predictions and fundamental physics. The project at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) in Brazil is to perform the highest precision measurement of hydrogen using a new cold hydrogen beam, built at UFRJ, and a high power UV 243-nm laser […]

Sports related concussion is becoming a major short- and long-term public health concern. The proposed project is designed to test the capabilities of different helmet liner materials in mitigating impact forces resulting from blows to the head, and determine the utility of such materials in reducing the incidence and effects of such concussive blows in […]

Urban streams are commonly unsuitable for salmon. One reason is pollution that rainfall washes from roads into waterways. For instance, coho salmon are very sensitive to a car tire additive present in road dust. It has killed adults before they spawn and likely affects young salmon too. This problem has been described in the US […]

Our proposed research project aims to answer the overall question: what is the actual risk of infections or cardiovascular events for patients with inflammatory arthritis that take novel arthritis medication (biologics) and how does it compare between different classes of these drugs, in real-world settings? As well as asking if the safety and effectiveness of […]
