Multiscale Fluid-Solid Interaction in Heterogeneous Materials and Interfaces (MultiscaleFSI)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2016,
Fluid-solid interaction (FSI) governs nature. From soft tissue modeling to lubrication technology, FSI problems in biomechanics and engineering are a major challenge in computational science towards understanding and emulating nature. This challenge is further intensified by the multiscale structure of materials and interfaces as well as by the finite configurational change (FCC) that a microstr ...

Integrated approaches for genomic variation discovery using high throughput sequencing (IAGVDHTS)
Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,
The new sequencing technologies revolutionize genomics as they promise low-cost, high-throughput sequencing (HTS) of both new species and different individuals to better analyze the patterns of genetic variation. These “next-generation” platforms started to contribute our understanding of human genome diversity with the 1000 Genomes Project that employs the HTS methods to produce the most detailed ...

The impact of bioactive lipokines on atherosclerosis (Lipokines)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
The prevalence of obesity has increased epidemically, with little hope for effective treatments on the horizon. Rising along with obesity is an aggregation of comorbidities including insulin resistance, hepatosteatosis, dyslipidemia, hypertensionc, coagulopathy, and atherosclerosis known as the cardiometabolic syndrome. With the extent of obesity in an increasingly aging world population, this fi ...
