Integrative physiology Professor Ken Wright is breaking new ground in the burgeoning field of sleep research, and bringing his students along for the ride, all of which has won him the Mary A. Carskadon Outstanding Educator Award.

Gordana Dukovic, a professor of chemistry who leads an interdisciplinary research group studying nanoscale materials in solar energy, is a finalist for one of the Blavatnik National Awards for Young Scientists.

Climate change is forcing animals to adapt—and fast. New research from a global team of researchers, including one from Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder, finds that wild animals might be better equipped to deal with these changes than expected.

New research adds another piece of evidence to the scientist philosophy known as the mediocrity principle: Galaxies are, on average, at rest with respect to the early universe. Jeremy Darling, a Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder astrophysics professor, recently published this new finding in the journal Astrophysical Journal Letters.

Cassandra Brooks has received an NSF CAREER Award to examine whether the Ross Sea's protection status is working. Part of what she'll look at is a large time series of ear bones from the Antarctic toothfish species—a health record of sorts.

Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder scientists have successfully synthesized graphyne, which has been theorized for decades but never successfully produced.

For Sharron Land Gegenheimer, living and studying abroad was life-changing—and now she wants other students at Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder to have the same kinds of experiences.

With Giving Games, Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder's Tim Wadsworth has helped hundreds of students learn more about the effectiveness of charities, the causes that tend to yield the greatest benefit for the least money and where to find tools to gauge nonprofits’ effectiveness.

Three generations of the O’Donnell family—all attending the College of Arts and Sciences—will celebrate this year’s commencement.

The award, considered one of the College of Arts and Sciences' highest honors, is given to students for academic achievement and service. This year, 17 undergraduates in a variety of fields are receiving the honor.
