    • The novel roles of BCL6 and BATF3 in regulating human CD8⁺ T cell dysfunction 

      Traunbauer, Anna Katharina (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      Reduced effector function and elevated inhibitory receptor expression are hallmarks of exhausted CD8⁺ T cells, yet the underlying molecular and epigenetic drivers remain incompletely defined. Here, we developed an in vitro ...

    • Aspects of Nonperturbative Heavy Quark Physics 

      Lin, Joshua (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      The properties of charm and bottom quarks are an interesting corner of Quantum Chromo-Dynamics (QCD) due to the fact that their masses are much heavier than the typical QCD interaction energy ΛQCD. Due to this scale ...

    • Probing the Nonperturbative Physics of QCD with Normalizing Flows and a moderate number of Pions 

      Abbott, Ryan William (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is a cornerstone of the standard model of particle physics, and the best known theory of strong nuclear interactions. The only known systematically improvable ab-initio method for accessing the ...
