Science & Technology
- Physics Professor and RASEI Fellow Ivan Smalyukh and his lab have set a Guinness world record for developing a transparent aerogel, which will boost thermal insulation in windows, increasing the overall energy efficiency of buildings.
- In recognition of World Elephant Day, Aug. 12, doctoral student and researcher Tyler Nuckols emphasizes that both groups are important in human-elephant coexistence.
- The Unstable Design Lab director has embarked on the first phase of a years-long project to bring together engineering and craft communities to advance textile research across a range of scientific disciplines.
- In a new study, researchers created a sort of simulated voting boothâa space where people, or mathematical âagents,â with various biases could deliberate over decisions. The results may help reveal the mathematics of how the human brain acts when it needs to make a choice.
- A growing number of AI technologies analyze the way people talk to screen for mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. A new study finds that they may not perform consistently across people from different demographic groups.
- ACME Lab members built relationships with industry players through the Pervasive Personalized Intelligence Center by collaborating on solutions to challenges in building Internet of Things systems.
- For years, CU Boulder engineers have helped to fly drones into the tumult of supercell thunderstorms across the United States' Tornado Alley. Now, their work will make an appearance in the summer blockbuster "Twisters."
- In an era of increased tech market turbulence, the network engineering fieldâthe backbone of the internetâcanât fill jobs fast enough.
- In a newly published study, CU Boulder chemist Wei Zhang details a new porous material that is less expensive and more sustainable.
- Robert Colwell, a CU Boulder researcher, has analyzed 50 years of data to show the relationship between certain birdsâ unorthodox behavior and their traits.
