Science & Technology
- A recent event, which drew 166 participants to the CU Boulder campus, marked an industry-wide step toward cutting emissions tied to building materials like steel and concrete.
- In research recently published in Science, CU Boulder scientists detail how light—rather than energy-intensive heat—can efficiently and sustainably catalyze chemical transformations.
- Samuel Silberman, an incoming doctoral student in electrical engineering, has landed a prestigious fellowship to support research into radio frequency lens design using advanced 3D printing and additive manufacturing.
- Nanomaterials and neuroscience researchers aim to build brain-body interfaces that enhance performance, improve health monitoring and support mobility.
- Mushroom mycelium can help clean up soil. Can it also help Indigenous people reconnect to the land? CU Boulder researcher Natalie Avalos aims to find out.
- Improved understanding of the light-driven production of hydrogen holds the promise not just to make the reaction more efficient in producing a fuel but also to offer a framework to better understand future light-driven chemistries.
- Studying patient blood flow patterns could help determine who’s at risk of dangerous side effects from left ventricular assist devices and lead to improvements that could make them safer, new research suggests.
- A new quantum device could one day help spacecraft travel beyond Earth's orbit or aid submarines as they navigate deep under the ocean with more precision than ever before.
- In a recently published paper, doctoral student Ellen Waddle and her coauthors provide some clarity on a decades-old problem.
- Assistant Professor Carson Bruns is leading the charge on an NSF-funded project that he and his team like to call "robochemistry." Their goal is to create robotic sidekicks that can assist chemists with burdensome or unsafe tasks routinely encountered in a wet lab. But that's not all.
