Technology supports researchers’ quest to understand parental discipline behaviors
How do different types of parental discipline behaviors affect children’s development in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs)? A group of researchers set out to understand that question. They used a large data set from UNICEF of several hundred thousand families. The data came from the fourth (2009–2013) and fifth (2012–2017) rounds of the UNICEF Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys. … Read More »

PFAS research in the Michigan mother-infant pairs study, supported by ITS, SPH, MM, AGC
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are a class of chemicals that have been around since the 1940s and became more broadly used in the post-war 1960s era. PFAS are in our homes, offices, water, and even our food and blood. PFAS break down slowly and are difficult to process, both in the environment and our bodies. Scientific studies… Read More »
Protein structure prediction team earns high rankings, supported by ITS, HITS, DCMB
CASP15 is a bi-annual competition assessment of methods of protein structure modeling. Independent assessors then compared the models with experiments, and the results and their implications were discussed at the CASP15 Conference, held December 2022, in Turkey. A joint team with members from the labs of Dr. Peter Freddolino and Dr. Yang Zhang took first place in the Multimer and Interdomain Prediction categories,… Read More »
