Outstanding Early-Career Investigator Award Finalists

Ca -dependent and Ca -independent signaling pathways are associated with cardiac hypertrophy. How these two pathways crosstalk with each other resulting in cardiac hypertrophy is poorly understood. To address this issue we designed a transfection bioassay to monitor NFAT activation in cultured rat neonatal cardiomyocytes. We determined that active MEKK3 was capable of stimulating calcineurin(Cn...

Early Career Award (My Research Program)

Letter from the 2016 IEEE TCDE Early Career Award Winner

As we take to data-driven approaches across all disciplines, the ability for practitioners to effectively interact with and make use of the data has become ever more important. While decades of research have gone into making data infrastructure more performant, the focus has typically been on throughput and efficiency of largescale pipelines, and not the experiences of end users. At the same ti...

Letter from the 2017 IEEE TCDE Early Career Award Winner

From large-scale physical simulations, to high-throughput genomic sequencing, and from conversational agent interactions, to sensor data from the Internet of Things, the need for data analytics—extracting insights from large datasets—has never been greater. At the same time, current data analytics tools are powerless in harnessing the hidden potential within these datasets. The bottleneck is no...

EARLY CAREER AWARD Emotion regulation: Affective, cognitive, and social consequences

One of life’s great challenges is successfully regulating emotions. Do some emotion regulation strategies have more to recommend them than others? According to Gross’s ~1998, Review of General Psychology, 2, 271–299! process model of emotion regulation, strategies that act early in the emotion-generative process should have a different profile of consequences than strategies that act later on. ...
