Ben Dantzer

I have studied the behavior and physiology of wild animals in the Canadian Yukon, the Kalahari desert, and the wilds of southwestern Ohio or northern Michigan. I enjoy taking a longitudinal approach to my scientific questions where we study individual animals over long periods of time. This allows us to understand how animals respond to ...

Abby Hutson

(I think I talk enough about my most interesting projects in other areas of this application, so I will not repeat them here) Before joining the University of Michigan, I spent all of my research career studying meteorology, specifically severe and tornadic thunderstorms. A majority of my research was done at at the storm-scale, or ...

Stephanie Preston

Two of our most recent projects apply our theory of emotion, stress, and empathy with multimodal physiological data collection and machine learning to study people's response to real-world events. In both studies, participants wear biometric devices (a watch or a ring) that measure their physiological response during a real-world event and then the data are ...

Anders Kiledal

I use omics techniques to study Lake Erie cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) and work with collaborators from the medical school to study the effects of graft versus host disease on intestinal microbes following bone marrow transplant. One of my major projects is the Great Lakes Atlas of Multi-omics Research (GLAMR) database, which seeks to ...

Geoffrey Siwo

My research is driven by a strong belief that abstracting complex scientific problems into computational problems has the power to accelerate the speed of scientific discovery and change who, here and how scientific discoveries are made and translated into practical solutions. I apply this principle to integrate computational techniques such as machine learning and artificial ...

Bernadette Bucher

Bernadette Bucher is an Assistant Professor in the Robotics Department at University ofMichigan. She leads the Mapping and Motion Lab which focuses on learning interpretable visual representations and estimating their uncertainty for use in robotics, particularly mobile manipulation. Her work has been recognized by a Best Paper Award in Cognitive Robotics at ICRA 2024 and ...

Michele Peruzzi

I work on the development of interpretable and scalable methods and software for the analysis of spatial data, with applications to ecology, environmental sciences, remote sensing, as well as “omics” multiplexed imaging data. I am primarily interested in three main areas: (1) methods development for spatial multivariate data; (2) scientific applications of Bayesian methods for ...

Anne McNeil

Our research aims to address some of the world’s biggest challenges through chemical recycling of waste plastics, developing methods to capture microplastics, measuring microplastics in the environment, and designing redox-active molecules for energy storage applications. Accomplishments and Awards

Mark Burns

Many biological assays require detection and quantification of chemical species in aqueous solutions. Dr. Burns has worked to develop inexpensive and easy ways to fabricate sensors that can detect proteins, small molecules, and ions in biological fluids such as blood, urine, and saliva. The sensors use a combination of electrochemical reactions, steric hinderance, and optical ...
