The MPower Professorship recognizes, incentivizes and fosters collaborations between faculty who are working together on the most pressing issues of our time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be considered for the MPower Professorship, faculty must demonstrate collaboration on strategic research that would be unattainable or difficult to achieve by UMB or UMCP acting independently of one another and must embrace the mission of MPower: to collaboratively strengthen and serve the state of Maryland and its citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MPower Professors will each receive $150,000, allocated over three years, to apply to their salary or to support supplemental research activities. These funds recognize, enable and support strong collaborations between faculty in the joint research enterprise between UMCP and UMB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEach of the six MPower Professors selected this year exemplifies a dedication to collaboration, innovation, and discovery,\u201d said UMB President Bruce E. Jarrell. \u201cThey positively impact the lives of citizens in Maryland, across the country and around the world through their work to solve major challenges facing society.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Reaching across disciplines to tackle\u202fcomplex problems takes tireless commitment, dedication, and innovation. I\u2019m so thankful to these\u202fsix professors for demonstrating that we\u202fare\u202fstronger when we\u202fwork together, and that addressing the\u202fgrand challenges of our time\u202frequires thinking outside\u202fthe\u202fbox,\u201d said UMCP President Darryll J. Pines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2023 MPower Professors are developing advanced understanding of ways to improve\u202fprograms and policies to support early parenting and child development; discovering emergent dynamic properties of complex systems at the interface of physics and biology; investigating interventions to improve substance use and other health outcomes locally and globally; maximizing the bioavailability of oral medications; researching ways to reduce aging-associated ailments such as cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes; and connecting engineering and clinical care to develop cutting-edge diagnostic and therapeutic methods for blinding and neurodegenerative diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The 2023 MPower Professors are:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/umd-today.transforms.svdcdn.com\/production\/rich-text\/Lisa_Berlin_web.jpg?w=1080&amp;h=1080&amp;auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;fit=crop&amp;dm=1700167111&amp;s=e82282661f679a8440fd08176da6c685\" alt=\"Lisa Berlin\" width=\"329\" height=\"329\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssw.umaryland.edu\/content\/people\/name-627750-en.html?&amp;\"><strong>Lisa Berlin<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;is the Alison L.
