- To highlight the contributions of postdocs and postdoc mentors, the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs (OPA) will be recognizing Outstanding Postdocs and Outstanding Mentors during National Postdoc Appreciation Week (NPAW), September 19-23.
- The Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) facility will host a day-long workshop and training session on Material 3D-Nanofabrication and Characterization from 8 a.m.- 5 p.m. on Aug. 9 on Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder’s Campus in the Gallogly Discovery Learning Center.
- Francisco López Jiménez is taking on an unusual research subject for an assistant professor in aerospace -- honeycombs.A faculty member in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ,
- 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 Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØAnschutz and Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder campuses.
- Researchers at Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder 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 Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder'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 Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder'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 Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder-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.
