- AB Nexus has announced its Fall 2022 Research Collaboration Grant Program, which seeks proposals from interdisciplinary teams that expand and strengthen areas of research collaboration between the CU Anschutz and CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº campuses.
- Researchers at CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº are part of a new $6 million grant from the National Science Foundation to help build the intelligent transportation systems of the future.
- A holistic discussion of quantum research on CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº's campus and across the state.
- Six faculty members within the College of Engineering and Applied Science received CAREER Awards from the National Science Foundation in 2022.
- Shideh Dashti is an associate professor in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering at CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº's College of Engineering and Applied Science. Her research is focused on geotechnical engineering, centrifuge modeling, and designing resilient infrastructure in the wake of earthquakes and climate-related natural disasters.
- Global cement production accounts for 7% of annual greenhouse gas emissions in large part through the burning of quarried limestone. Now, a CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº-led research team has figured out a way to make cement production carbon neutral—and even carbon negative—by pulling carbon dioxide out of the air with the help of microalgae.
- Kristin Calahan (PhDMechEngr’21) is the lead author on a new paper in Science Advances that explores the best approaches for anchoring medical devices to tissue inside the body to improve their performance.
- Today’s offshore wind turbines can tower more than 490 feet above ground, their spinning blades churning out up to 8 megawatts (MW) each—about enough to power 4000 homes in the U.S. But with their increasing size comes challenges.
- The Pew Charitable Trust announced today that Assistant Professor Wyatt Shields has been selected as a 2022 Pew Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences.
- Scientists at LongPath and CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº are using new laser technology to do what other technologies have struggled to do for years: detect natural gas, which is invisible to the eye, leaking from pipes at sites like this, in real time.
