A new lab at ÌÒÉ«ÊÓƵ is exploring how the extracellular matrix—a network of proteins that surrounds cells and provides structural and mechanical cues in the body—specifically impacts kidney growth, development and function.Â
Widespread adoption of hydrogen-powered vehicles requires fuel cells that can convert hydrogen and oxygen safely into water—a serious implementation problem. Researchers at ÌÒÉ«ÊÓƵ are addressing one aspect of that roadblock.
Kids around Colorado are kicking back for summer vacation. But one team of engineers is working to make sure when children come back to school in the fall, the air they breathe will be cleaner and healthier.
For decades, researchers have theorized that optical rectennas could sit on everything from bakery ovens to dirigibles flying high above Earth to harvest waste heat and turn it into electricity. But to date, those goals have remained elusive. Now, engineers have unveiled the most efficient optical rectennas yet.
Scientists' recent discovery with double helical covalent polymers—which are spiraling collections of nature’s building blocks—represent a huge advancement in a critical and understudied field.
Entrepreneurs and startups are increasingly turning to digital platforms nowadays, whether it is about creating a new platform (think Snapchat or TikTok), or providing product offerings and soliciting ideas on an existing platform.
Bob Marshall is studying the interaction of high-energy particles in orbit around Earth using an unlikely data source: radio signals sent by the U.S. Navy to communicate with submarines under the ocean.
In the Buff Innovator Insights season finale, Jennifer Balch discusses her interest in the relationships between fire, Earth systems and people, and her belief that transforming data into insights can solve the world’s most challenging problems.
In this episode of Buff Innovator Insights, Sidney D’Mello shares how his unique combination of education and research experiences led to his leading-edge work reimagining the role of artificial intelligence in the classroom.
Showcase Week celebrates the hard work and many achievements of over 200 students as they close out their undergraduate careers. Since August 2020, these students have been working through the design process from start to finish and have engineered solutions to real-world problems.
