<p>NIST news release</p>
<p>Achieving a goal considered nearly impossible, JILA physicists have chilled a gas of molecules to very low temperatures by adapting the familiar process by which a hot cup of coffee cools.</p>
<p>JILA is a joint institute of the �鶹��Ѱ����� and the National Institute of Standards and Technology located on the CU-Boulder campus.</p>

<p>�鶹��Ѱ����� faculty and students are part of international science teams that made two of the top 10 breakthroughs in physics in 2012 as judged by Physics World magazine.</p>

<p>�鶹��Ѱ����� Assistant Professor Nikolaus Correll likes to think in multiples. If one robot can accomplish a singular task, think how much more could be accomplished if you had hundreds of them.</p>
<p class="p1">Correll and his computer science research team, including research associate Dustin Reishus and professional research assistant Nick Farrow, have developed a basic robotic building block, which he hopes to reproduce in large quantities to develop increasingly complex systems.</p>

<p>The perception of Congress as a gridlocked institution where little happens is overblown, according to new research by scholars at the �鶹��Ѱ����� and the University of Washington.</p>
<p>And the way much of Congress’ work gets done is through self-manufactured crises like the “fiscal cliff,” say political science professors Scott Adler of CU-Boulder and John Wilkerson of UW.</p>

<p>A �鶹��Ѱ����� professor and her biomedical spinoff company Xalud Therapeutics Inc. of San Francisco are teaming up with a Front Range veterinarian to conduct a clinical study targeting an effective treatment for dogs suffering from chronic pain.</p>

<p>Gaping crevasses that penetrate upward from the bottom of the largest remaining ice shelf on the Antarctic Peninsula make it more susceptible to collapse, according to �鶹��Ѱ����� researchers who spent the last four Southern Hemisphere summers studying the massive floating sheet of ice that covers an area twice the size of Massachusetts.</p>

<p>A new partnership between the �鶹��Ѱ�����’s Leeds School of Business and the College of Engineering and Applied Science, spurred by a gift, will have positive implications for the construction and real estate industries.</p>

<p>More than 350 engineering students at the �鶹��Ѱ����� will demonstrate their innovations and inventions to the community at the annual fall Engineering Design Expo on Saturday, Dec. 8.</p>

<p>A team led by the �鶹��Ѱ����� has been awarded $9.2 million over five years from the U.S. Department of Energy to research modifying E. coli to produce biofuels such as gasoline.</p>
<p>“This is a fantastic opportunity to take what we have worked on for the past decade to the next level,” said team leader Ryan Gill, a fellow of CU-Boulder’s Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute, or RASEI. “In this project, we will develop technologies that are orders of magnitude beyond where we are currently.”</p>

<p>A jumping spider named Nefertiti that lived on the International Space Station in a habitat designed and built by a �鶹��Ѱ����� team has returned to Earth after 100 days in space and found a new home at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington D.C.</p>
