Research Feature
- The National Science Foundation has announced that CU 抖阴传媒在线 will receive a $25 million award to launch a new quantum science and engineering research center. The new center will be led by physicist Jun Ye and is a partnership with 11 other research organizations in the United States and abroad.
- The College of Engineering and Applied Science has launched three new interdisciplinary research themes as part of a broad push into growing and critical areas of study. They are titled Hypersonic Vehicles, Resilient Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity, and Engineering Education and AI-Augmented Learning.
- In a new paper, published in Optica, researchers describe a new silicon chip鈥攚ith no moving parts or electronics鈥攖hat improves the resolution and scanning speed needed for a lidar system.
- It is the nature of an engineer to meet challenges with curiosity and persistence until a solution arises. Right now, our planet faces no greater challenge than that presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our students and faculty meet that challenge every day when they provide clear and accurate information for the public, take on and solve key research questions rapidly and collaborate with everyone at the table trying to solve the challenge.
- CU 抖阴传媒在线 has been selected to lead a new multi-university, industry-focused research Center on Pervasive Personalized Intelligence through the National Science Foundation's IUCRC program.
- National Geographic talks with CU 抖阴传媒在线 students and faculty in the College of Engineering and Applied Science studying fireflies.
- Assistant Professor Marina Vance鈥檚 group has published a new research paper titled 鈥淚ndoor particulate matter during HOMEChem: Concentrations, size distributions, and exposures鈥 in the journal Environmental Science & Technology.
- A multidisciplinary team is working to build a pilot-scale system capable of producing 10,000 to 100,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccines per run that would be ready for use as human trials of vaccines begin in the next year.
- Innovative 'backpack' particles help macrophages resist assimilation by tumors.
- CU 抖阴传媒在线 biomedical engineer Jacob Segil is working to bring back that sense of touch for amputees, including veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
