Researchers in Christoph Keplinger’s lab released a toolkit to show a broad audience how to create their own artificial muscles. They hope this will expedite the development of wearable, surgical and collaborative robots that safely and effectively help humans.
Researchers are developing sensors based on technologies used in chip-scale atomic clocks and optically pumped magnetometers with sensitivity and accuracy able to support wireless broadband antenna technologies.
Victor Bright and a team of Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder and Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØAnschutz researchers have received a grant to commercialize a miniature microscope that fits on the head of a mouse and can peer deeply inside the living brain.
Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder researchers Jianliang Xiao and Wei Zhang have developed self-healing, fully-recyclable electronic skin that is completely recyclable. They are now investigating applications surrounding the material's ability to shapeshift.
From developing a system to reduce food waste to constructing a way to prevent tool theft at public bike repair stations, students in the Design for America organization at Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder are working on a wide range of projects with community partners.
The Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoard of Regents approved new degrees in biomedical engineering. Through these degrees, students will have the chance to pursue classes across the university in engineering, biology and mathematics.
Six student teams are participating in Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder’s Catalyze Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØstartup accelerator. They have access to skill-building workshops and mentoring with local business leaders and can earn up to $5,000 in equity-free funding.
The NSF GRFP supports outstanding graduate students in STEM disciplines pursuing research-based graduate degrees. Six Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØmechanical engineering students received awards in 2019 along with one honorable mention.
Professor Jana Milford was recently appointed by Governor Jared Polis to a third three-year term on the Colorado Air Quality Control Commission, which oversees air quality regulations for the state.
Read about how wildfires sparked water quality research, how poor air quality affects low-income households, how a Colorado-born technology detected methane gas leaks and how Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder outreach projects taught K–12 students across Colorado about air quality.
