Nontraditional NSF grant puts UD researchers on fast track to new ideas

Twenty-one teams composed of academic researchers, student entrepreneurs and business mentors were selected nationwide for 2013. Cavazos’ group earned one of two I-Corps grants awarded to UD. The other went to a team led by Elisa Schrank, a post-doctoral researcher in kinesiology and applied physiology.

UD assistant professor Ryan Zurakowski (left) has reported a new modeling technique that reveals HIV may be replicating in the body even when undetectable in the blood. With him is Fabian Cardozo, a UD doctoral student and co-author of the paper.

HIV advance - UD-led team develops mathematical model to measure hidden HIV

Scientists have long believed that measuring the amount of HIV in a person's blood is an indicator of whether the virus is actively reproducing. A University of Delaware-led research team reports new evidence that hidden virus replication may be occurring within the body's tissue, despite undetectable virus levels in the blood.

UD's Prasad Dhurjati is investigating autism spectrum disorder using a systems engineering approach.

Getting to the guts of autism

While researchers studying autism from a variety of disciplines around the world are turning their attention to the stomach, UD Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Prasad Dhurjati is helping to put their work into context.
