- The Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) facility will host a two-day workshop and training session on Material 3D-Nanofabrication and Characterization from 8 a.m.- 5 p.m. April 21 and 22 on the CU «Ƶ campus.
- Assistant Professor Mija Hubler is a recipient of a three year, $548,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award for her proposal “Mechanical Modeling of Living Building Materials for Structural Applications.”
- The Odor2Action Network brings together international scientists to understand a fundamental problem in neuroscience—how odors lead to behavioral actions. Using the olfactory circuit, researchers aim to achieve an end-to-end understanding of how brains organize and process information from odors in the environment to guide adaptive behaviors, and how these actions modify odor perception.
- The College of Engineering and Applied Science will host a research blitz and poster session featuring work from within the interdisciplinary research themes from 3 - 6 p.m. on April 12 in the DLC lobby and first floor meeting spaces.
- Mechanical Engineering Professor Francois Barthelat is hosting a webinar at noon on March 16 via Zoom that explores how seashells, fish fins and other biological materials can inspire better engineering materials in the future.
- Assistant Professor C. Wyatt Shields IV is the recipient of a 2022 Office of Naval Research (ONR) Young Investigator Program Award for his proposal “Mapping Immune Cell Responses to High Pressures in Decompression Illness.”
- Two CU «Ƶ professors have been elected to the National Academy of Engineering, one of the highest honors an engineer can receive in their career.
- The Natural Hazards Center on campus will host another virtual forum at 2 p.m. on March 31 via Zoom related to the recent «Ƶ County Fires. Participants from all disciplines and from any organization or institution are welcome to attend.
- Assistant Professor C. Wyatt Shields IV is the recipient of a National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) award for his proposal “Shape-Encoded Electrokinetic Particles for Multiplexed Biosensing.” This project seeks to develop a new method of early identification of disease biomarkers, while also facilitating outreach and education to students at Northglenn High School.
- Distinguished professor honored “for developing high-efficiency microwave transmitters and active antenna arrays for wireless communication systems and for engineering education.”
