High-precision robotic tasks, such as peg insertion, pose a challenge for learned world models. The critical states that determine success occur within an extremely narrow portion of each task trajectory, causing uniform sampling to underrepresent them. This thesis investigates whether targeted data selection improves...

In genome-wide association studies (GWAS), each mutation in the genome is tested for association with a disease or trait of interest, one at a time, across hundreds to millions of individuals. GWAS have demonstrated great utility for elucidating human biology and identifying disease-related genes which can be targeted...

William James’ pragmatism is often dismissed by contemporary philosophers. In my dissertation I show that Jamesian pragmatism can do good philosophical work and is worth taking seriously by elucidating and defending James’ views of intentionality and truth, and by drawing from James’ pragmatist methodology to develop J...

Respiratory viral infections are a major cause of morbidity across the lifespan, yet the cellular programs that coordinate antiviral immunity in the human nasal mucosa remain incompletely defined. This thesis uses single-cell RNA sequencing to characterize epithelial and immune responses to respiratory viruses directly...

Suicide is one of the most devastating aspects of human nature and has perplexed scholars for centuries. One reason suicide has remained so perplexing is how difficult it is to measure suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs). New technologies, such as smartphones, offer tools to measure STBs as they unfold in real-time....

This thesis makes three contributions to the understanding, control, and design of strongly correlated quantum matter. First, motivated by recent experiments reporting light-induced superconductivity, magnetism, and charge order, this thesis develops a unified description of photoexcited quantum materials. We show that...

In 2000, David P. DiVincenzo proposed seven necessary criteria to construct a physical quantum computer. His requirements included device scalability, having well-defined qubits with long coherence times, and the ability to implement a universal gate set. Since then, research has propelled several experimental platform...

Retrieval-augmented generation systems typically retrieve a candidate pool of passages and then select a small evidence set for answer generation. Standard retrieval pipelines score passages individually, often ignoring interactions among selected items. Yet evidence quality is fundamentally a set-level property, since...

Moments in which foundational work practices are disrupted can confront individuals and teams with the need to “do” work differently, enacting new and unfamiliar practices in place of established ways of working. This dissertation examines how new ways of working come into being through this process of doing differentl...

Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is a therapeutic strategy that harnesses the cell’s protein quality control machinery to selectively remove disease-relevant proteins. Central to many TPD approaches are E3 ubiquitin ligases, which can be recruited and rewired by small molecules to non-native substrates, leading to ub...
