- Researchers at Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder have developed virtual clinical trials for an artificial pancreas that could significantly improve treatments for those with Type 1 diabetes by tailoring medical devices and speeding up clinical trials.
- Julie Korak’s research interests are broadly focused on water treatment engineering, spanning municipal drinking water, water reuse and industrial water treatment.
- A new campus wide initiative - the Quantum Explorations in Science & Technology seed grant program - aims to put Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder at the center of work being done on quantum.
- How a new generation of grippers with improved 3D perception and tactile sensing is learning to manipulate a wide variety of objects
- Researchers at Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder have uncovered the statistical rules that govern how gigantic colonies of fire ants form bridges, ladders and floating rafts.
- Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder engineers have developed a 3D printing technique that allows for localized control of an object’s firmness, opening up new biomedical avenues that could one day include artificial arteries and organ tissue.
- The Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Science is leading a new multi-university and multi-disciplinary project from the National Science Foundation aimed at fostering collaboration in quantum research.
- The natural world has had billions of years of evolution to perfect systems, creating elegant solutions to tricky problems. Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder Assistant Professor Orit Peleg’s work hopes to illuminate and explore those solutions with the long-term goal of
- A new material developed in Chris Bowman's lab can transform into complex, pre-programmed shapes via light and temperature stimuli, allowing a literal square peg to morph and fit into a round hole before fully reverting to its original form.
- The research, which was funded by The Water Research Foundation (WRF) and presented at Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder earlier this month, outlines a multitude of challenges posed by Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ, including short- and long-term effects on the availability and quality of drinking water sources used by major metropolitan areas such as Denver, Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ. The report also outlines potential remediation solutions to help utilities plan for worst-case scenarios.
