Support -- THANKS!Joan and Richard Komen Endowed Chair supports diverse student activities in the Daniel lab. This endowment fuels nearly all of the recent intellectual ventures of the laboratory and has fostered new grants, student carreers, and general support for the Department of Biology.The National Institutes of Health: A collaborative grant with the Regnier Laboratory at the University of Washington Department of Bioengineering supports the computational simulations of many motor molecules in muscle. National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biological Informatics (2003): Supports Sanjay Sane's studies of mechanosenory information processing by antennae. National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biological Informatics (2005): Supports Ty Hedrick's studies of dynamics and inverse problems in flight control. The Airforce Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) supports the research on compliant gyroscopes with particular interest in antennal mechanosensory processing and encoding characteristics of crane fly halteres. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) supports a new collaborative effort with the Voldman Laborator at MIT and the Hildebrand Laboratory at the University of Arizona focussing on the integration of MEMS technology with flight control circuits in insects. The David and Lucille Packard Foundation: An interdisciplinary team including Chris Diorio (CSE), Dennis Willows (FHL), Karl Bohringer (EE), Denice Denton (EE) are working to produce implantable microelectronics for understanding nueral systems and movement control.The Office of Naval Research (ONR): A MURI grant involving Michael Dickinson (Caltech), Mark Willis (CWRU) and Chris Diorio (UW, CSE) aimed at understanding the neuromechanical basis of flight control in the Hawkmoth. |
