New CIRES research has found that specific microbes in Antarctica's soils are endemic—located on the continent and nowhere else on Earth.
Funding from the National Science Foundation will expand the quantum workforce and advance research projects including more accurate atomic clocks and sensors for early detection of disease.
Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder researchers are exploring how microscopic vibrations engineered beneath an aircraft's surface could delay turbulence and improve fuel efficiency in passenger jets.
Doctoral student Jas Shahanand is developing ways to study the hidden chemical reactions inside wildfires, laying the groundwork for more accurate emissions models, improved climate predictions and cleaner fuels.
Professor Chris Myers is developing data standards that could make synthetic biology more predictable and help AI become a more effective research tool.
Researchers in Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder's Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology are taking a closer look at the drought-recovery efforts of these beloved blooms.
Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder engineer Ankur Gupta discusses how AI, paired with rigorous human verification, helped answer a decades-old fluid mechanics question in just five weeks.
New research investigates the shifting patterns of odors as they travel through the air. The findings may help explain how animals navigate using smell and eventually inform development of odor-finding robots.
Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder Professor Emeritus Gifford Miller contributed to a study that sheds new light on the extinction of one of Australia's oversized flightless birds—and could help scientists answer bigger questions about extinction.
Affordable, reliable energy storage is one of the biggest challenges facing renewable energy—Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder engineering researchers are developing next-generation batteries to help solve it.
