Research
- Professors Sarah Calve and Virginia Ferguson's tissue engineering project is one of three space-based experiments that recently received a NSF grant to help patients on Earth.
- The reusable cloth masks people have been using for the past year or more may look a little worse for the wear. But new research from Professor Marina Vance finds that washing and drying them doesn’t reduce their ability to filter out viral particles.
- Mechanical Engineering professors teamed up with the Department of Veterans Affairs to use glucose from our body to power small medical devices.
- Interdisciplinary Research Themes help researchers coordinate faculty hires, share facilities and use seed funding to leverage work that could provide transformational societal impact.
- Two CIRES scientists working in NOAA laboratories contributed to the World Meteorological Organization's first-ever Air Quality and Climate Bulletin.
- The Office of Postdoctoral Affairs is excited to recognize the significant, wide-ranging contributions of ÌÒÉ«ÊÓƵ postdocs during National Postdoc Appreciation Week, September 20-24.
- ME alumnus Prateek Shrestha has developed an aerial-monitoring sensor that will help educate people on mapping air pollutants in Nepal.
- ME professor Shelly Miller, a co-author of the study, finds masking instruments, social distancing and implementing time limits significantly reduce the risk of emitting COVID-19 airborne particles.
- The work is based in Research Professor John Pellegrino’s Fundamental Membrane Development, Characterization, & Applications lab.
- Professor Marina Vance of mechanical engineering will evaluate the movement and presence of wildfire particulate matter in indoor settings.
