Telomerase, a powerful enzyme that acts at the ends of human chromosomes, can keep us healthy, but it can also promote cancer growth. Now, researchers at the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ have used a process called single-molecule imaging to visualize the process that this enzyme uses to attach itself to the ends of chromosom
Beginning in spring 2017, Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder becomes the first university in the nation to offer a graduate certificate in Applied Shakespeare.
A solar storm that jammed radar and radio communications at the height of the Cold War could have led to a disastrous military conflict if not for the U.S. Air Force’s budding efforts to monitor the sun’s activity, a new Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder study finds.
Earlier snowmelt periods associated with a warming climate may hinder subalpine forest regulation of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), according to the results of a new Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ study.

A new Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ study shows that using an electrically-powered bicycle on a regular basis can provide riders with an effective workout while improving some aspects of cardiovascular health, especially for riders who previously had been sedentary.
A group of Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ faculty and students are anxiously awaiting the arrival of NASA’s Juno spacecraft at Jupiter July 4, a mission expected to reveal the hidden interior of the gas giant as well as keys to how our solar system formed.
A new study, published today in the journal Science and led by Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ researchers, sheds new light on a longstanding biological mystery. Mitochondria are crucial to cellular processes, providing respiratory and metabolic functions that power a cell.
A study led by the University of Adelaide and including the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ indicates giant ice age-era mammals that roamed Patagonia until about 12,300 years ago were finally felled by a rapidly warming climate, not by a sudden onslaught of the first human hunters.
