The goal of the workshop is to bring together experts and junior participants working in these fields to collaborate on research projects, and its primary focus is to facilitate research activities. There will be eight research groups consisting of four to six participants, each led by two research leaders. Each group will come to the workshop with a prepared plan and project and spend most of the workshop working on their respective projects. The workshop will also feature several introductory, as well as more advanced, talks, and professional development activities. This structure was very successful in previous workshops in the series: WINART1 in 2016 and WINART2 in 2019.<br/><br/>The fields of noncommutative algebra and representation theory have long been closely intertwined, but even more so since the emergence of quantum groups in the 1980s. The results in these fields have been significant in their own right and also have had a strong influence in shaping other fields such as conformal field theory, the study of operator algebras, string theory, topological field theory, and the various forms of noncommutative geometry. There will be a variety of research topics present at the WINART3 workshop: cluster theory, Hopf algebras and their representation theory, weak Hopf algebras and their actions on algebras, infinite-dimensional Lie theory, and Hochschild cohomology.

The theme for the 2017 conference is Share WISDOM (Women In Statistics, Data science, and -OMics). The conference will create an environment that promotes transformation and collaboration by encouraging and supporting women statisticians, biostatisticians, and data scientists. In particular, an ultimate objective of this conference is to increase the proportion of successful women researchers who have the technical skills, capacity and inclination to take on the challenges of complex data oriented research in twenty-first century. \n\nThe two and half-a-day conference (starting the afternoon of October 19th) will have multiple technical sessions providing participants with the opportunity to learn about novel approaches and innovations addressing the challenges of working with complex data. The technical sessions will be complemented by professional development sessions for all stages of participants starting from graduate students to senior researchers. The synergy derived from the diverse cohort of presenters and participants will support the intentional integration of formal and informal learning and mentoring. The conference, through multiple invited technical sessions will highlight the research of female rising stars, mid-career and senior researchers and will provide the opportunity to establish new collaborations. In addition, the mentoring and networking sessions of academic, government and industry participants will guide early-career women participants on a successful career trajectory.

The goal of the SPRF program is to prepare promising, early career doctoral-level scientists for scientific careers in academia, industry or private sector, and government. SPRF awards involve two years of training under the sponsorship of established scientists and encourage Postdoctoral Fellows to perform independent research. NSF seeks to promote the participation of scientists from all segments of the scientific community, including those from underrepresented groups, in its research programs and activities; the postdoctoral period is considered to be an important level of professional development in attaining this goal. Each Postdoctoral Fellow must address important scientific questions that advance their respective disciplinary fields. Under the sponsorship of Dr. Rhacel Parreñas at the University of Southern California (USC), this postdoctoral fellowship award supports an early career scientist investigating the role of women in politics during a democratic transition. Existing research on women’s political participation during democratic transitions generally concludes that women participate in revolutions and the early years of democratic transitions but stop shortly after. The United States,in particular, supports women political candidates and politicians, which likely improves their ability to remain politically active. Women politicians who get elected during democratic transitions deserve to be studied because they provide a model of increasing women’s political participation—not through political appointments, but rather through elections. The researcher will employ and train junior researchers to conduct policy-relevant research and communicate the research’s findings through written and oral policy briefings. \n\nResearch on women’s long-term political participation during political transitions has tended to subscribe to one of two major sets of assumptions. First, much research assumes that women do not gain political influence beyond revolutions and the initial years of democratic transition. In contrast, the literature that argues that women become influential in the long term tends to focus exclusively on post-civil war contexts. Second, there is a growing scholarly literature on coalitions. Yet, much of the literature focuses on places where political actors form coalitions under relatively stable political conditions. Third, there are scholarly and activist debates about the role and impact of assistance during democratic transitions. Findings from this research can shed light on women’s political participation during democratic transitions and on coalition work across party lines.\n\nThis award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.", "keywords": [], "approved": true } }, { "type": "Grant", "id": "2440", "attributes": { "award_id": "2017148", "title": "Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution / R/V Atlantis and R/V Armstrong SSSE", "funder": { "id": 3, "ror": "https://ror.org/021nxhr62", "name": "National Science Foundation", "approved": true }, "funder_divisions": [ "Geosciences (GEO)", "SHIPBOARD SCIENTIFIC SUPP EQUI" ], "program_reference_codes": [], "program_officials": [ { "id": 6884, "first_name": "James", "last_name": "Holik", "orcid": null, "emails": "", "private_emails": "", "keywords": null, "approved": true, "websites": null, "desired_collaboration": null, "comments": null, "affiliations": [] } ], "start_date": "2020-03-15", "end_date": "2022-02-28", "award_amount": 356124, "principal_investigator": { "id": 6886, "first_name": "Timothy", "last_name": "Twomey", "orcid": null, "emails": "", "private_emails": "", "keywords": null, "approved": true, "websites": null, "desired_collaboration": null, "comments": null, "affiliations": [] }, "other_investigators": [], "awardee_organization": { "id": 362, "ror": "https://ror.org/03zbnzt98", "name": "Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution", "address": "", "city": "", "state": "MA", "zip": "", "country": "United States", "approved": true }, "abstract": "A request is made to fund Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment (SSSE) on R/V Atlantis, a 274’ general purpose research vessel, and R/V Armstrong, a 238-foot multidisciplinary vessel.

The vessel is scheduled for 217 days in 2021, 9% of which (19 days) are for NSF and 37% (81 days) are for NSF OOI.With this proposal, WHOI provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following SSSE:1)\tLaboratory Infrastructure (Benches, Seating, Cabinets, etc.)\t$149,2612)\tALVIN LARS Gimbal Frame\t$88,8743)\tKVM System\t$54,9084)\tIP Video Matrix System\t$110,4305)\t(2) -20ºC Cospolich Laboratory Refrigerator-Freezers\t$13,6096)\t(3) General Use Laboratory Computers\t$16,1947)\tGraco Husky Pump for Underway Seawater System\t$11,9928)\t(2) Lithium Battery Containment Units\t$8,792\t\t\t\t\t\t\t$454,060Broader ImpactsThe principal impact of the present proposal is under Merit Review Criterion 2 of the Proposal Guidelines (NSF 19-602). It provides infrastructure support for scientists to use the vessel and its shared-use instrumentation in support of their NSF-funded oceanographic research projects (which individually undergo separate review by the relevant research program of NSF). The acquisition, maintenance and operation of shared-use instrumentation allows NSF-funded researchers from any US university or lab access to working, calibrated instruments for their research, reducing the cost of that research, and expanding the base of potential researchers.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.", "keywords": [], "approved": true } }, { "type": "Grant", "id": "6807", "attributes": { "award_id": "5R21ES032928-02", "title": "Woodsmoke-induced disruption of Nasal Microbiome and Cytokine Profiles", "funder": { "id": 4, "ror": "https://ror.org/01cwqze88", "name": "National Institutes of Health", "approved": true }, "funder_divisions": [ "National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS)" ], "program_reference_codes": [], "program_officials": [ { "id": 8631, "first_name": "ANIKA LIN", "last_name": "Dzierlenga", "orcid": null, "emails": "", "private_emails": "", "keywords": null, "approved": true, "websites": null, "desired_collaboration": null, "comments": null, "affiliations": [] } ], "start_date": "2021-04-01", "end_date": "2023-03-31", "award_amount": 266599, "principal_investigator": { "id": 22624, "first_name": "Radhika", "last_name": "Dhingra", "orcid": null, "emails": "", "private_emails": "", "keywords": null, "approved": true, "websites": null, "desired_collaboration": null, "comments": null, "affiliations": [ { "id": 817, "ror": "", "name": "UNIV OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL", "address": "", "city": "", "state": "NC", "zip": "", "country": "United States", "approved": true } ] }, "other_investigators": [ { "id": 22625, "first_name": "Meghan Elizabeth", "last_name": "Rebuli", "orcid": null, "emails": "", "private_emails": "", "keywords": null, "approved": true, "websites": null, "desired_collaboration": null, "comments": null, "affiliations": [] } ], "awardee_organization": { "id": 817, "ror": "", "name": "UNIV OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL", "address": "", "city": "", "state": "NC", "zip": "", "country": "United States", "approved": true }, "abstract": "Global exposure to woodsmoke particles, primarily from wildfires and biomass burning, are an ever-increasing source of particulate matter, which is linked to many respiratory conditions. Successful defense against woodsmoke requires proficient immune regulation to maintain overall homeostasis. Critical to establishing an effective immune response to inhaled antigens, the nasal mucosa are known to be colonized by a large number of fungal, bacterial and viral micro- organisms. Disorders of the respiratory tract, however, are considered diseases of inflammation, not infection. Many studies have shown the role of commensal resident microbes and their metabolites in the initiation and/or progression of mucosal inflammation. For instance, incidence of allergic and inflammatory disease, including asthma and allergic rhinitis, is associated with a lack of diverse microbial colonization. Nasal cytokines are also known to be altered in those exposed to air pollutants (e.g., wildfire smoke), and to alter the robustness of response to viral insults, such as influenza and coronaviruses. Thus, we hypothesize that wood smoke exposure induces dysbiosis of the nasal microbiome and an altered inflammatory cytokine profile, which together have implications for respiratory health. We address this gap by identifying how concurrent microbiota and cytokine profiles change in response to exposure to woodsmoke. In this crossover study design, we will collect nasal epithelial lining fluid samples from healthy individuals at multiple time points post- exposure to either woodsmoke or filtered air in a controlled setting, in order to generate microbiome and the cytokine profiles. Once samples have been processed in the laboratory, we will conduct bioinformatic and statistical analyses to describe how acutely the microbiome and cytokines are concurrently altered in response to woodsmoke. We will also compare baseline profiles and responses in microbiome and cytokine responses by demographic and other factors.
