• Early Learning Leaders and Drivers of Decision-Making in US Public Schools: The START team created a database of the early learning leaders in US’s largest most diverse public school districts in the 50 states. The START team worked in conjunction with the The Early Learning team to create surveys, and KII to identify the major consideration and factors that influences these leader’s selection of the formative and summative assessment. Additionally we identified major challenges these leader’s face in professional development and data utilization.
• Comprehensive Analysis of Non-symbiotic Nitrogen Fixing Mechanisms: The START team assembled up-to-date research on underexplored biological nitrogen fixation modes such as (1) stem modulating BNF (2) Cyanobacteria (3) Azolla-Anabaena , Nostoc and BGA. The team also identified products in the market based on these microbes; what are the bottlenecks to scale and translate them to crops of interest such as maize, sorghum, rice? What research interventions are required to translate them as products?
