  Greg’s research focuses on chromosome dynamics and the mechanisms of inheritance.

  I am a computational scientist with multidisciplinary training in applied mathematics, computer science, and biological modeling and simulation. My primary scientific interests are to devise broadly applicable computational methods for simulating biomechanics, biofluid dynamics, and electrophysiology; develop efficient, general-purpose software implementations of these methods; and apply these methods and...

  Proper regulation of cellular lipid stores is paramount to maintaining organismal energy homeostasis and is coordinated by a network of multi-tissue endocrine signals. We aim to elucidate the molecular mechanisms that govern the storage, metabolism, and intercellular transport of lipids; as well as understand how these circuits interface with...

  Full spectrum family medicine with emphasis on obstetrics & rural medicine

  My research focuses on population genetics, genetic epidemiology, and statistical genetics, with a particular focus on Alzheimer’s disease and cardiometabolic conditions, including stroke and chronic kidney disease. I have applied and extended statistical methods, developed analysis pipelines, and used bioinformatics tools to elucidate the genetic architecture of complex diseases...

  A clinician-scientist whose research focuses on developing and validating AI-assisted obstetric ultrasound tools to improve pregnancy assessment, risk stratification, and clinical decision-making. My work integrates machine learning, point-of-care imaging, and novel approaches to ultrasound collection to expand equitable access to high-quality prenatal care, particularly in under-resourced settings.

  My laboratory investigates cell signaling networks—particularly protein post-translational modifications and protein–protein interactions—to identify novel drug targets and develop innovative therapeutics. Our research primarily centers on mechanisms regulating protein stability (e.g., deubiquitination pathways) and innate immune signaling (e.g., cGAS–STING) in cancer contexts. We employ mammalian cell culture and animal models...

  I am a maternal-fetal medicine physician with a clinical and research focus on maternal morbidity and mortality, as well as maternal medical illness in pregnancy, including diabetes, hypertension, HIV, and renal disease. I have a research background in epidemiology and demography, and much of my research focuses on either...

  I am a Professor and Vice Chair of Research in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC). As a health services researcher and implementation scientist, I am dedicated to establishing stakeholder informed real-world evidence aimed at improving health care...

  My clinical and research focus is on patients with limb loss or amputations, prosthetics and orthotics, neurorehabilitation, women’s health, and quality improvement.
