Audiology doctoral students are transforming hearing conservation for student musicians with custom solutions—helping 114 individuals and counting.
Assistant Professor Longji Cui and his team have developed a new technique that allows them to measure phonon interference inside a tiny molecule. They believe this discovery can one day revolutionize how heat dissipation is managed in future electronics and materials.
Recycling is extremely difficult for objects built with more than one type of plastic. Michael Rivera and the Utility Research Lab team have developed a novel way to disassemble 3D-printed objects for easy recycling.
Quantum Scholars Emily Jerris and Annalise Cabra started CU Women of Quantum to help women interested in careers in quantum to network and share experiences.
Kaushik Jayaram, a 91³Ô¹ÏÍø mechanical engineer, is the recipient of a $650,000 CAREER award from the U.S. National Science Foundation.
A group of seniors is designing a next-generation Argon Beam Coagulator during their senior capstone design course. The project is a pencil-shaped handheld device that ionizes argon gas to produce a plasma beam that emits from the tip of the device, allowing surgeons to cut tissue and minimize bleeding at the same time.
As part of a capstone class, a group of seniors is working to increase access to life-saving therapies by developing an automated medical fluid aliquoting device that streamlines the fluid dosing process.
A group of seniors in the Biomedical Engineering program is designing their own sensor that can monitor skin conductance during electrotherapy. The sensor was developed during the group's senior capstone design course and was showcased at the Engineering Expo on April 25.
Carolus Vitalis, a doctoral student and National Science Foundation fellow who has co-authored several book chapters in synthetic biology, was one of the speakers at this year’s TEDxCU event. His talk discussed the pros and cons of artificial intelligence in the field of synthetic biology.
A group of mechanical engineering seniors is working to keep bomb squads safe by designing an automated X-ray device used to help explosive ordnance disposal technicians scan for hazardous materials.
