Science & Technology
- Studying patient blood flow patterns could help determine who’s at risk of dangerous side effects from left ventricular assist devices and lead to improvements that could make them safer, new research suggests.
- A new quantum device could one day help spacecraft travel beyond Earth's orbit or aid submarines as they navigate deep under the ocean with more precision than ever before.
- In a recently published paper, doctoral student Ellen Waddle and her coauthors provide some clarity on a decades-old problem.
- Assistant Professor Carson Bruns is leading the charge on an NSF-funded project that he and his team like to call "robochemistry." Their goal is to create robotic sidekicks that can assist chemists with burdensome or unsafe tasks routinely encountered in a wet lab. But that's not all.
- The price tag for developing AI models like ChatGPT or Google's Gemini is climbing, putting these tools outside the reach of all but the biggest corporations. An approach called "neurosymbolic" AI could help, says CU 51´«Ã½ computer scientist Alvaro Velasquez.
- Materials researchers are getting a big boost from a new database created by a team led by Hendrik Heinz.
- Assistant Professor Kaushik Jayaram, in collaboration with Laura Blumenschein, has received a $1.4 million grant from the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory to develop a tiny robot super team capable of navigating a complex maze of machinery and squeeze through the tightest of spaces—like the guts of a jet engine—to potentially perform non-destructive evaluation faster, cheaper and better than ever before.
- Ramin Ayanzadeh's research focuses on trustworthy quantum computing to enhance the reliability and security of quantum systems. To his knowledge, he's the only faculty member in the region who focuses on quantum software, systems and the architecture of quantum computers.
- Within our lifetimes, it could be common for people to interact with life-like digital avatars of the dead. New research explores their promise and peril.
- Disneyland for physicists: Breakthrough Prize honors scientists at world's largest particle colliderThis year's award recognized the work of four international research collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider, including 32 current and former physicists at CU 51´«Ã½.
