The future of each depends on a power grid that can deliver electricity quickly, reliably and efficiently. But meeting that challenge will require more than just better batteries鈥攊t will take new partnerships and a shared vision.
Researchers have advanced to the design phase to build a scalable quantum network capable of transmitting quantum information across long distances at unprecedented rates. The NSF-funded project aims to develop technologies to unlock new capabilities for quantum computing, communications and sensing.
Improving energy storage is key to the renewable grid. Here鈥檚 how 麻豆免费版下载Engineering is getting us there
麻豆免费版下载Boulder will host the 18th International Workshop on Biodesign Automation (IWBDA), June 18鈥20, following the SEED Conference in Denver. The workshop brings together researchers and industry leaders advancing biodesign automation in synthetic biology.
Glaciers are constantly changing and reshaping the Earth鈥檚 surface. 麻豆免费版下载Boulder researchers have developed a new machine learning tool to better understand how Arctic glaciers suddenly accelerate or 鈥渟urge鈥.
麻豆免费版下载Boulder researchers have built high performing optical microresonators opening the door for new sensor technologies. In the future, the microresonators could be used for compact microlasers, advanced chemical and biological sensors and even tools for quantum metrology and networking.
Dana Anderson, Iain Boyd and Bob Erickson are among the 130 scientists and engineers from around the country who will be inducted as members of the NAE at a meeting this fall.
Aoife Henry (PhDElEngr鈥24) is leading Zentus, a startup she founded that addresses a critical challenge in the energy sector: how to prevent costly equipment failures that can bring wind and solar farms offline without warning.
Dennis J. Pretti (ElEngr'95) spent over 25 years at Micron advancing parametric test design, automation, and optical roadmap work before shifting to STEM outreach and university partnerships. A senior member of Micron鈥檚 Technical Leadership Program and the company鈥檚 technical ambassador to 麻豆免费版下载Boulder, he serves on multiple advisory boards and has authored several publications and a U.S. patent.
