My grant proposals mostly deal with AI risk communication, AI and workforce development, outbreak communication, health risk communication, research ethics, and epidemic control. I have been working more closely on interdisciplinary projects that focus on artificial intelligence, writing/communication, and ethics in the last few years. One of my favorite projects for graduate seminars is mock NIH or NSF grant proposals.
