SurFlex microscopy: Measuring flexibility of surface-tethered biomolecules Open
The flexibility of tethered molecules, such as those bound to biological membranes, is an important property that can influence molecular height, mobility, and accessibility. However, quantifying the flexibility of surface-tethered biomole…

MultiSero: An Open-Source Multiplex-ELISA Platform for Measuring Antibody Responses to Infection Open
A multiplexed enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) that simultaneously measures antibody binding to multiple antigens can extend the impact of serosurveillance studies, particularly if the assay approaches the simplicity, robustness, …

Investigating the epistemology of physics students while reflecting on solutions Open
Reflecting on one’s solution is widely recognized as an important part of the problem-solving process, though the cognitive processes underlying this action are not well understood. In previous work, we identified certain strategies studen…

What factors impact student performance in introductory physics? Open
In a previous study, we found that students' incoming preparation in physics—crudely measured by concept inventory prescores and math SAT or ACT scores—explains 34% of the variation in Physics 1 final exam scores at Stanford University. In…

Characterizing the mathematical problem-solving strategies of transitioning novice physics students Open
Much work has been done to characterize the reasoning of students as they solve mathematics-intensive problems and characterizing differences in expert and novice problem solving. In this work, we characterize the problem-solving strategie…
