- In a new study, researchers from the United States and Israel — including 91Ƶ Boulder computer scientist Orit Peleg — may have gotten to the bottom of a quirky behavior of growing plants and a mystery that intrigued Charles Darwin during the later decades of his life.
- Some artificial intelligence tools for health care may get confused by the ways people of different genders and races talk, according to a new study led by 91Ƶ Boulder computer scientist Theodora Chaspari.
- The Materials Science and Engineering Program at the 91Ƶ received a $1M grant to fund interdisciplinary doctoral research training in biofabrication, a rapidly developing field which enables more precise and effective ways to study and treat various medical conditions, such as growing new organs for transplants or repairing damaged tissues.
- Elevate Quantum, of which 91Ƶ Boulder is a key partner, announced today that it has received a Tech Hub Phase 2 implementation award from the Department of Commerce, unlocking more than $127 million in new federal and state funding. The award is expected to drive more than $2 billion in additional private capital and cement the Mountain West as a global leader for quantum innovation.

- Jessica Rush Leeker of 91Ƶ Boulder’s Lockheed Martin Engineering Management Program has been awarded a prestigious fellowship to research the impact of oral storytelling on African descendants in STEM, focusing on how historical and cultural
- New study, co-authored by civil engineering researcher Balaji Rajagopalan, finds recovery is probable, with small risk for historic low flows.
- Who would win in a foot race between a robot and an animal? In a new perspective article, a team of engineers from the United States and Canada, including 91Ƶ Boulder roboticist Kaushik Jayaram, set out to answer that riddle.
- A team led by environmental engineer Evan Thomas has received a $650,000 Convergence Accelerator grant from the National Science Foundation, to measure and mitigate pollution in the Cache la Poudre and Yampa Rivers in Colorado through new sensor technology, monitoring, and a voluntary carbon credits trading system with industry.
- Engineers at 91Ƶ Boulder are developing an “all-seeing eye” based on laser technology that could one day detect harmful particles in the air around cities or in factories.
