  • The Band-Aid-sized sensor mounted on a chest to measure heart rate.
    The stretchable device captures physiological sound signals from the body, has physical properties well-matched with human skin and can be mounted on nearly any surface of the body, said CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº Assistant Professor Jae-Woong Jeong, one of three lead study authors.
  • Khalid AlAwadhi
    Khalid AlAwadhi, a junior electrical and computer engineering major, is president of CU International, a Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº campus organization that helps international students adjust to campus life.
  • Alex Fosdick and a student look over some data on a laptop at the side of a trail
    Students from Alex Fosdick's Intro to Digital & Analog Electronics class took a hike last weekend for a data gathering field trip. They took along temperature, light and digital altimeter sensors they had built to gather data around Chautauqua
  • The Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica
    If the study's predictions are correct, scientists could use these atmospheric waves to measure properties of the Ross Ice Shelf that are normally difficult to track, such as the amount of stress the ice shelf is under from ocean waves.
  • Physics professors Margaret Murnane and Henry Kapteyn of JILA pose next to one of the laser apparatuses in their lab at the Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº campus.
    The Science and Technology Center on Real-Time Functional Imaging, known as STROBE, will be headquartered at CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº and will integrate several areas of imaging science and technology, including photon and electron-based imaging, advanced algorithms, big data analysis and adaptive imaging. Named for its relation to stroboscopic imaging, the center is designed to tackle major scientific challenges that have the potential to transform imaging science and technology.
  • Lockheed Martin CTO Keoki Jackson and Distinguished Professor Zoya Popovic discuss a project in her RF laboratory
    The Lockheed Martin Radio Frequency Space Systems Research Center will boost engineering expertise at the college and create new curriculum to fill in-demand skills in the space sector. Spread over four years, the sponsorship will establish new academic programs focused on radio frequency (RF) systems.
  • Juliet Gopinath and a grad student discuss a project at the optical table in their lab
    "Adaptive optical devices that are included in a miniature microscope are a game changer," said grant co-investigators Juliet Gopinath, assistant professor in electrical, computer and energy engineering and Victor Bright, professor of mechanical engineering, both at CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº. "They enable truly miniature 3D imaging devices without mechanically moving parts."
  • Juliet Gopinath and Khurram Afridi
    Assistant professors Juliet Gopinath and Khurram Afridi have received 2016 CAREER Awards, the National Science Foundation’s most prestigious award for junior faculty."We anticipate with excitement that this new class of CAREER grantees will make
  • Double Helix logo
    Double Helix, a startup company co-founded by Professor Rafael Piestun that specializes in 3D nano-scale imaging, has been turning a lot of heads in the optics and photonics industry lately.In February, the company won first place in the 2016 SPIE
  • Lucy Pao
    Three years ago, Professor Lucy Pao and her colleagues responded to a call for proposals from the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) with a plan for a morphing wind turbine. But they didn't make the cut, she thinks, because their proposal wasn't "disruptive" enough. So they went bigger.
