Science & Technology
- Researchers from NOAA and Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder have devised a breakthrough method for determining emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel combustion, which will also lead to more accurate estimates of carbon exchange between the land and atmosphere.
- Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder researchers have discovered that a synthetic molecule based on natural antifreeze proteins minimizes freeze-thaw damage and increases the strength and durability of concrete, improving the longevity of new infrastructure and decreasing carbon emissions over its lifetime.
- Jacob Segil is working to bring back the sense of touch for amputees, including veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
- Scientists have been studying cyanobacteria and its many potential applications for decades, but there wasn’t a deep understanding of the full life cycle and metabolism of specialized compartments within these common bacteria – until now.
- What can researchers do when their mathematical models of the spread of infectious diseases don’t match real-world data?
- At a time when the field of human-computer interaction is becoming more important than ever, ATLAS researchers are making substantial contributions, recently contributing nine papers and two workshops to the world's leading conference for HCI.
- Astronaut ice cream—the crunchy, freeze-dried, pale imitation of the real thing—may have met its match: The International Space Station is getting a real freezer.
- A team of geologists is digging into what may be Earth’s most famous case of geologic amnesia.
- A Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder team is one of several funded teams in the Subterranean Challenge, a competition launched by the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to stimulate and test ideas around autonomous robot use in difficult underground environments.
- Joining a grassroots global effort, members of the ATLAS community are 3D-printing face shield parts to help protect local medical personnel from exposure to COVID-19.
