- Associate Research Professor Svenja Knappe is apart of a team of physicists and engineers studying quantum technology. In a novel study, the group has discovered a new way to measure the orientation of magnetic fields using atoms. Their findings could one day lead to the creation of new quantum sensors that can map the activity of the human brain or even help airplanes navigate the globe.
- 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder’s Living Materials Laboratory contributed to groundbreaking research showing how engineered microbes can create bioglass microlenses, paving the way for advanced imaging technologies in medicine and materials science.
- Professor Michael Gooseff and collaborators are gathering the first-ever continuous, long-term water quality sample of the Colorado River's upper basin.
- Computer scientist Nikolaus Correll and his lab have been awarded $1.8 million by the U.S. Department of Energy Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) to help establish a circular supply chain for domestic electric vehicle (EV) batteries.
- In June, NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams boarded the International Space Station (ISS), expecting a week-long stay in orbit. Now, they won’t return to Earth until February after a series of technical issues plagued the Boeing
- That ordinary smartphone in your pocket could be a powerful tool for investigating outer space.In a new study, researchers at Google and 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder have transformed millions of Android phones across the globe into a fleet of nimble scientific
- Anthony Straub is making major advances in water purification technology for industry and human consumption on Earth and in space, with his work on a nanotechnology membrane process taking a major step toward commercialization...
- Drone technology and atmospheric science instruments developed by the 91¶ÌÊÓƵ will be available to researchers nationwide through a new grant.The National Science Foundation has awarded 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder a three-year, $1 million
- Zach Sunberg’s research developing better artificial intelligence systems is getting a major boost from two federal grant awards.Sunberg is receiving a $599,000, five-year CAREER Award from the National Science Foundation and is a partner on a
- As part of a Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in Antarctica, a research team led by Associate Dean for Research Mike Gooseff found that the unexpected melt followed by a rapid refreeze likely disrupted the life cycles of many organisms and killed a large swath of some invertebrates in the McMurdo Dry Valleys.
