Founder Emma Antonio – a chemical and biological engineering postdoc – wants children to see science in the world around them and believes the arts provide an access point for exploration and experimentation.
The device at CU «Ƶ is made from a 10-by-10 grid of soft robotic “muscles” that can sense outside pressure and pop up to create patterns. It’s precise enough to generate scrolling text and fast enough to shake a chemistry beaker filled with fluid.
Researchers at CU «Ƶ have developed a new membrane water filtration system based around air bubbles that can help address water scarcity issues around the world.
Svenja Knappe has been awarded the prestigious Carl Zeiss Humboldt Research Award, given to researchers who have had a lasting effect on their discipline beyond their immediate research area, wish to collaborate with specialist colleagues in Germany and contribute to promoting diversity in the STEM disciplines.
Undergraduate students interested in materials research will get a boost at the «Ƶ next summer thanks to a new Research Experience for Undergraduates grant from the National Science Foundation.The Materials Science and
Potentially harmful chemicals generated by the Marshall Fire in late 2021 may have lingered inside some «Ƶ County homes for weeks after the disaster—hiding in small particles of dust that residents could have mixed back into the air when they vacuumed carpets or turned on fans, according to recent research.
Karan Dikshit (PhDMatSci’22) is the first author on a paper in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces around new adhesive materials that not only allow for easy sticking and unsticking but could eventually contribute to sustainability efforts around the globe.
Assistant Professor Nick Bottenus of the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering has been awarded a Webb-Waring Biomedical Research Award for research advancing the state of ultrasound molecular imaging.
Researchers from CU «Ƶ and NASA have completed a census of hundreds of large asteroids orbiting near Earth—gauging which ones could come precariously close to our planet over the next thousand years.
The intercampus program supports multidisciplinary research partnerships between CU Anschutz and CU «Ƶ.
