- The final Entrepreneurial Product Development fall semester project focuses on products that could be used for a children’s Shakespeare theater production.
- Laurel Hind, assistant professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering, and the Hind Research Group use engineering tools to find answers to biological questions that researchers have been looking at for decades with limited success: how the body can best fight infection without attacking healthy tissue.
- Professor Hendrik Heinz served as an author for the new analysis which was published Nov. 28 in the journal Nature Materials.
- The Office for Outreach and Engagement announces the Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Art Science Environment Fellows program, as the latest incarnation of the office’s work to connect the arts, sciences and community for shared action on Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ’s interrelated social and environmental issues.
