<p>Colorado business leaders remain optimistic going into the second quarter of 2012 suggesting a recovery is taking hold, according to the most recent quarterly Leeds Business Confidence Index, or LBCI, released today by the ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß’s Leeds School of Business.</p>

<p>A ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß-led research team has discovered that two protein receptors in the central nervous system team up to respond to morphine and cause unwanted neuroinflammation, a finding with implications for improving the efficacy of the widely used painkiller while decreasing its abuse potential.</p>

<p>¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß students, along with experts from government and industry, will focus on student research and the natural gas boom during the third annual Energy Frontiers conference April 5.</p>
<p>The event, organized by the CU Energy Club, is free and open to the public and will be held from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the Glenn Miller Ballroom of the University Memorial Center. The conference includes a poster session, panel discussion, catered lunch and a career fair.</p>

<p>Some populations of mountain pine beetles now produce two generations of tree-killing offspring annually, dramatically increasing the potential for bugs to kill lodgepole and ponderosa pine trees, CU-¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß researchers have found.</p>
<p>Because of the extra annual generation of beetles, there could be up to 60 times as many beetles attacking trees in any given year, the study found. And in response to warmer temperatures at high elevations, pine beetles also are better able to survive and attack trees that haven't previously developed defenses.</p>

<p>The work of a talented group of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß students and staff has made it to the big screen. The really big screen -- in fact, a more than 20-meter dome.</p>

<p>Two University of Colorado professors who have skillfully integrated teaching and research at a high level throughout their careers at CU-¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß have been designated as 2012 President’s Teaching Scholars.</p></div></div></div>

<p>ColdQuanta Inc. of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß and the University of Colorado have finalized an agreement allowing ColdQuanta to commercialize cutting-edge physics research developed by CU-¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß and SRI International. The licensed technology centers on Bose-Einstein Condensate, or BEC, a new form of matter created just above absolute zero. </p>

<p>Double Helix LLC of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß and the University of Colorado have completed an exclusive option agreement to allow Double Helix to develop a novel technique for 3D super-resolution imaging.</p>

<p>The work of a talented group of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß students and staff will be making it to the big screen this weekend. The really big screen -- in fact, a more than 20-meter dome.</p>

<p>Long thought to produce only one generation of tree-killing offspring annually, some populations of mountain pine beetles now produce two generations per year, dramatically increasing the potential for the bugs to kill lodgepole and ponderosa pine trees, ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß researchers have found.</p>
