Grateful to receive the University of Arizona’s Engineering Dean’s Award for Outstanding Early Career Faculty which recognizes excellence in teaching, research, and service to a tenure-track or early career track faculty member. One award is given annually. Thanks for the support of my colleagues (especially Jennifer Barton and Jim Wyant for the nomination), my dynamic lab members who have kept the lab going during the pandemic, and funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Science Foundation (NSF), Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), Flinn Foundation, Research Corporation for Science Advancement, Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, the Arizona Alzheimer’s Consortium, the Partnership For Clean Competition and the University of Arizona Cancer Center
