Spring 2021 CISE-ENG Seed Award Recipients

Four Spring 2021 Seed Grants were awarded by the Boston University Center for Information & 系统工程 (CISE) and the College of Engineering’s (ENG) Dean’s Catalyst Award program.  This joint seed-funding program is aimed at enabling CISE affiliates and ENG faculty the opportunity to kickstart innovative interdisciplinary research projects, broaden significant research areas, and collect preliminary data to secure extramural support. The awarded projects focus on the theme of “Intelligent, Autonomous, and Secure Systems,” a mutual strategic core area for CISE and the College of Engineering.

“CISE is excited to help faculty realize their research goals through these seed grants,” says CISE Director Professor Yannis Paschalidis (ECE, BME, SE). “The projects funded through this opportunity show tremendous potential to catalyze new discoveries in diverse high-impact applications.”

The CISE-ENG seed awards provide funding for researchers to hire PhD students to advance research initiatives. This fund awarded $175,000 seed funding for novel research covering myriad research topics, from the security of implantable medical devices (IMDs) to improving the efficiency of robots, pioneering navigational technologies for the blind, and strengthening the cyber security of web sites.
