Project Description This project explores how large language models (LLMs) and generative AI can support and transform biological research. We focus on developing LLM-powered tools and AI agents to assist with key tasks such as data preprocessing, integration, analysis, reasoning, and scientific decision-making in biological studies. Project Outcome Opportunities for contributing to novel research findings […]

Project Description This project aims to study the impact of alterations in the neural circuits of the cerebral cortex controlling voluntary skilled movements. The goal is to apply machine learning algorithms and quantification of skilled movement in mice. Project Outcome These models will be used to detect movement dynamics and improvements in movement performance in […]

Project Description The Tulane University Laboratory for Software Design advances software engineering for AI-enabled systems by creating programming abstractions, analysis tools, and modular deep-learning methods that make complex software easier to build, verify, and evolve. We develop open infrastructures like Boa and techniques for reliable, data-driven discovery with a broad impact on industry and science. […]

Project Description The Social Perception Lab is in the School of Science and Engineering at Tulane University, located in New Orleans, Louisiana. We conduct experimental research investigating the psychology of prejudice, stereotyping, discrimination, and stigma. Broadly speaking, our research examines the consequences of perceiving prejudice and stereotypes from the perspective of both majority and minority […]

Project Description We developed an approach of putting a unique vibrational label into a lipid bilayer at a desired depth in the hydrophobic portion of the bilayer. The label is capable of measuring accurately the rigidity of the bilayer via vibrational spectroscopy (FTIR and 2DIR). The project involved testing how the bilayer interior is affected […]
