Researchers have figured out a way to predict bacteria’s environmental pH preferences from a quick look at their genomes, using machine learning. Led by experts at CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ, the new approach promises to help guide ecological restoration efforts, agriculture and even the development of health-related probiotics.
In taking its technology from the lab to the streets, Solid Power is changing how electric vehicles run with less expensive, more efficient and safer battery technology.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology has made a $94.5 million cooperative agreement to continue successful NIST-CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ collaboration.
Heidi Shyu—the United States Department of Defense under secretary—visited campus on April 17 and got a first-hand look at the future of CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ’s trailblazing research in quantum, aerospace, hypersonics and more.
Mechanical engineering student Ellen Rumley was part of a robotics club in high school, but she could never get over the clunkiness of rigid, metal machines. Now, she's designing soft robotic actuators that work like animal muscles. They're also completely biodegradable.
Recently identified chili pepper fossils from ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ and Denver museums challenge 50 million years of global evolutionary history. Now, that’s some spicy science!
In a new, multi-university project, researchers from CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ will help to design incredibly-sensitive quantum sensors that can detect changes in Earth's climate from space.
Hisham Ali is pushing the limits of plasma physics and hypersonics in his lab on campus to advance a nationally important area of science and engineering:Â magnetohydrodynamics.
Tens of thousands of sharks are killed each year to harvest a key ingredient for vaccines, while old growth trees are slashed to obtain chemotherapy ingredients. Soybean farmer-turned molecular biologist Brian DeDecker has a better idea.
1,200 years ago on the isolated island of Madagascar, giant flightless elephant birds roamed the landscape. Research using ancient eggshell fragments reveals new clues about their genetic diversity.
