Mentoring Philosophy
When working with students in a research mentoring context, I use a cognitive apprenticeship approach where my students are offered opportunities for meaningful participation and ownership. If compatible with their goals and abilities, I welcome students’ involvement with my research projects, and I can provide guidance with their independent project. In general, research mentorship begins with students discussing their goals and making a plan that includes bi-weekly objectives, elements of low-stakes practice, and incremental increases in responsibility and skill requirements (e.g., coding a transcript and identifying themes, running an analysis and interpreting it). I listen to their discussion of processes and decisions and provide guidance and resources as needed so that students learn different parts of the research and publication process in an authentic manner.Additional Information

Project Description
In the United States, nearly 40% of food is wasted in kitchens due to the degradation of nutrients, spoilage, or safety concerns. This food loss was related to approximately 133 billion pounds and 161 billion worth of food in 2010. In order to reduce food loss and ensure the nutrition and safety of food products, our research project will integrate smart sensors and instrumentation with machine learning to rapidly and accurately study the chemical and microbiological properties of food products. More specifically, we will collect the food-related data using 3D-printed portable sensors, spectroscopy, and optical imaging; and then analyze the data using machine learning. This newly developed approach will be applied to predict the shelf life of food products and guide the consumers to plan their daily food consumption at home.Research Tasks: Students will be working closely with the research mentor Dr. Ma for literature review, data collection, and data analysis. There are also opportunities for students to write manuscripts and attend conferences with the supports from Dr. Ma.
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Background in biology, chemistry, computer science, nutrition and food sciences are recommended.
Mentoring Philosophy
My mentoring philosophy is student-centered. I will learn the career and academic goals of students in both short-term (within 1 year) and long-term (2-4 years). Based on the shared interest between students and myself, I will design a detailed project for students. I will develop different training plans for students who want to go to academia, industry, or governmental institutes. In this UROP program, I will closely work with students, share my own experience, and teach them both soft skills and technical knowledge. I will create a safe and enjoyable environment in which students feel it is fine to learn from mistakes. I will also encourage the growth of students through research challenges, starting with a little challenging tasks and gradually increasing the challenge levels based on the student's learning curve.Additional Information

Project Description
The heart is able to grow in response to exercise. This healthy growth stems from the enlargement of every heart muscle cell in the heart. Heart muscle cells grow by assembling more and more cytoskeleton, known as sarcomere in muscle cells. In the lab, we can force this growth by making cells work harder and their natural response is to build more sarcomeres. One of the proteins that is a structural member of these sarcomeres is alpha-actinin, which acts as a cross-linker to anchor other structural proteins like actin. We recently published a paper demonstrating that we can use two drugs to control the assembly and disassembly of sarcomeres. To this day, we have tracked the growth by "freezing" the cardiac muscle cells and using special dyes to look at the sarcomeres. Nevertheless, our goal is to be able to track the growth and atrophy of sarcomeres in real time in cardiac muscle tissue. As such, the goal of this project will be to develop a 3D-printed frame that allows to to sustain myocardial slices to study the basic biology of the heart. The 3D-printed frames should hold the cardiac muscles without letting them get looseResearch Tasks: The research tasks for this project include the following
1) Select the appropriate CAD software (e.g. Fusion 360) to build the models.
2) Generate iterations of prototypes to test their suitability to hold myocardial sheets
3) Keep in consideration the spatial constraints imposed by the culture dishes
3) Optional: develop a electromechanical feedback system
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Knowledge of use of computer-aided design software (CAD)
Knowledge of basic 3D printing techniques
Optional: knowledge in design and assembly of Arduino micrcocontrollers
Mentoring Philosophy
My mentoring philosophy is simple: you can reach the stars if you are in a supportive environment. My goal as a mentor is to provide the right conditions for my mentees to thrive. Examples of how I achieve this are by first and foremost, being available for my mentees to ask questions and get help at the earliest possible. Second, I provide the motivation and the key information for trainees to understand what is the main problem and why it must be solved. Third, I provide my trainees with the career advice they need to that from day one they can start getting feedback of where they can go with their careers. I am cognizant that motivation is an important driver of success because without the right catalyst the smallest challenge ahead will become daunting.Additional Information

Project Description
In this 12-month study, we conducted survey data to inform the develop a culturally appropriate (for Deep South contexts, to be adolescent friendly) modular HIV prevention mHealth intervention, targeting behavior change related to HIV testing, HIV prevention knowledge, and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake for men who have sex with men (MSM) 14-17 years of age, that can be seamlessly integrated into the existing school and community environments. To do so, we assessed adolescent MSMs' knowledge, sentiments, and beliefs related to HIV risk, HIV stigma, and HIV prevention including preferences related to modality of PrEP and PrEP acceptability. Our singular aim (objective) is to elucidate knowledge, beliefs (including perceptions of HIV risk), and preferences related to HIV prevention among MSM adolescents in the southern United States through the conduct of an online survey to inform intervention development.Research Tasks: UROP students will conduct literature searches and write up findings using scienctific language. UROP students who have skills in quantative analyses will analyze data for trends and associations. The team of students who will be working on this project will have a once a week meeting with a Research Team lead.
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Required: strong writing skills. Recommended: familiarity with research, quantative methods, commitment to addressing health disparities.
Mentoring Philosophy
As a product of intensive mentoring myself, I believe in the value of mentoring the next generation of scientific leaders. At the undergraduate level, my priorities are to introduce trainees to the sociobehavioral sciences, expose them to the selected research topic, and build their research skills to work towards an academic presentation. While I am directive initially, I expect trainees to develop independence and autonomy in the process. I encourage intellectual curiosity and support trainees to explore their own interests within the scope of the selected research study.Additional Information

Project Description
My research program has been primarily concerned with understanding biological and social systems through mathematical modelling. I am interested in understanding questions in theoretical ecology and evolution from the general to the specific. Additionally, much of my work focuses on sociality in a variety of settings, such as cancer, infectious diseases, and human communities. Sociality has many roles in nature from explaining multicellularity to civilization. Cooperation is important for the acquisition of resources for tumours, and for the establishment of effective herd immunity from vaccination. The research project is to study such a system in a game theoretic framework that features social dilemmas, where the socially optimal state is untenable due to individual selfishness. We will be interested in cases where social dilemmas arise, how they arise, and how they may be ameliorated.The specific subject is to be decided with the mentee, but can include: public goods games among microbes, behaviour during an epidemic, social finance, and social norms and the evolution of human cooperation. We will couple a biological/economic/physical system with a social dynamic in a mathematical model, and then study the impact of the social behaviour on that system. The model may be a system of differential equations or an agent-based model, depending on the students' skills and interests.
Consider altruism in the ecology of cancer and bacteria as examples. Cancer and bacteria can produce public goods that are prone to being taken advantage of by free-riders. Examples include angiogenic factors in tumours, and siderophore production in bacteria. Because cheaters do not pay the cost of production of these goods, they have more energy to compete against altruists. There are several questions that arise from this social dilemma: how can altruists survive with competing cheaters? What role do cheaters play within the infection? If altruists and cheaters can coexist, how do they interact and evolve? How can we use our understanding of cooperation in this system to better treat disease?
Another example is the spread of pathogens in human populations, which crucially depends on social, political, psychological, and economic factors. Behavioural factors may promote or inhibit the spread of disease, and thus have implications for public policy. Events of the past few years have demonstrated with unusual force how critical the interactions between social and epidemiological dynamics are to controlling disease, and how much we still have to learn about them. Examples of the role of behaviour in epidemiology include: social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic; emergence of MRSA from antibiotic overuse; burial traditions and the spread of Ebola; and anti-vaccination movements. Such behaviour is often influenced by social norms, which help determine the expectations individuals have on both what others will do and what they should do and thereby guide personal decision making. How does this affect the trajectory of an epidemic, and what public policies should be recommended to mitigate the spread of disease? Other types of contagion outside of disease can also be studied in this framework.
Research Tasks: conduct research, develop code, literature review, mathematical analysis, mathematical modelling, writing
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Required: Calc 1, 2, & 3, ODEs
Recommended: linear algebra, coding (any language)
Mentoring Philosophy
Learning biological and social theory is an exciting endeavour, and mathematics plays an integral role, which many students are unaware of. I am excited to introduce this fact to my students. For students coming from other fields, it provides motivation for learning the mathematics. And, for students more knowledgeable about mathematics, it provides an exciting arena for applications of mathematical theory. Working at the crossroads of biology, social science, and mathematics, I strive to make theory engaging and accessible to students coming from different backgrounds. I think that the intrinsic multidisciplinarity of the field is a strength in captivating students. I am enthusiastic about sharing the relevance and scope of theory: how it has and can address our questions, and its applications to and impacts on society. Though most students will not likely take a scientific career, the tools of scientific inquiry, mathematical problem solving, and modelling will be useful throughout their lives.It is important to find a topic that interests both the mentee and mentor. Since my interests are varied, I work with my mentees to find a topic that they are passionate about and capable completing. The projects can vary a great deal in the amount of mathematics and coding required. Students likely will not have all the required skills. However, if they are willing, I can teach them anything they may be missing. Interest and work ethic are key to success.

Mentoring Philosophy
As a teacher and mentor, my mentoring philosophy is about working with students and their skillsets to develop projects that are beneficial to their professional goals. Through our research projects we will create an interactive learning environment that allows them to develop their skillset through hands on experiences in a safe space. While our projects are challenging at times, failing or making mistakes is part of developing as a professional and we will work through things together and learn from any missteps. Behind everything in my professional studio practice and my teaching practice, I seek to build a community of care that encourages individuals to learn and grow.Additional Information

Project Description
This interdisciplinary study will evaluate long-term survival effects of psychological strength factors (e.g., spirituality, character strengths) in an PI’s (Ai’s) existing sample of older patients who underwent open-heart surgery (N=481, female 42%). It significance lies in several facts. Nearly 92.1 million American adults have some form of cardiovascular diseases that accounts for 1 of every 3 deaths in the US. Costly open-heart surgery is a life-saving/extending achievement in cardiac medicine but is also a stressful life event. Further, recent population students have shown health benefits of psychological strength factors in aging—health relevant areas, especially survival benefits of religiousness/ spirituality and character strengths, mostly in general populations. Yet, studies have rarely examined the survival benefit of psychological strength factors in clinical cardiac patients over a decade. Moreover, aligned with the World Health Organization’s concept of health with a whole-person’s view, a JAMA article posits that spiritual interconnection could inform future strategies for both public health and individualized, patient-centered care. It also noted that health providers have paid limited attention to such psychological strengths that can be an impetus for promoting healthy behaviors. Clearly, more clinical research is needed to provide robust evidence on potential protection of strength factors to advance this area of studies. The PI’s publications on this sample have showed the positive role of preoperative strength factors (e.g., optimism/ hope, sense of reverence in secular contexts, positive religious coping, using prayer for coping) in short-term recovery. Based on the literature in three interrelated areas (Spirituality, Aging, and Health, Positive Psychology and Health, and Psychological Resilience), the proposed study aims to address important unanswered questions.Research Tasks: literature review, format and other preparation for presentation and publications if engaging in dissemination.
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Second year students preferred with capacity to perform AMA and APA style abstract database. Ability to conduct extensive search using multiple lib data base for literature. Creativity in designing posters at the professional level, not just UROP! Willingness to conduct tedious and seeming boring work as a testing process for cultivating scholarly qulities.
