Matthew MacManes, assistant professor of genome-enabled biology at the University of New Hampshire, recently won a five-year, $1.7 million NIH Maximizing Investigators' Research Award, which will allow his team to better understand dehydration and how humans can better survive it through studying a tiny desert rodent that's adapted to survive both acute and chronic dehydration.
