Science & Technology
- Just after first responders extinguished the flames of the Marshall Fire, a team of engineers from across the country hit the ground in an urgent effort: to collect data on the disaster before it disappears for good.
- After nine weeks immersed in a research experience at CU Boulder, undergraduate students could analyze scientific papers and graphs more like experts, according to a new CIRES-led study.
- Researchers at CU Boulder are using artificial intelligence to develop digital models representing children who learn one language at home early in life and then begin learning another language in preschool.
- A new, long-awaited study shows amputee sprinters using running prostheses, or blades, have no clear competitive advantage at the 400-meter distance compared to sprinters with biological legs. The research puts into question sports governing body policies that limit the height of prostheses.
- Lahijanian’s work is at the intersection of safety and soundness in robotics, focusing on developing autonomous systems that operate safely and effectively alongside humans to help improve the well-being of individuals and societies.
- The Colorado congressman's recent visit to the CU Boulder campus came as investments in quantum research have grown across the country and the Centennial State.
- Look back on the year in research at CU Boulder: from custom lullabies to "cute" spacecraft, melting snow in the West and more.
- Two CU Boulder scientists discuss what’s different about omicron, why people are watching it closely and what can be done to prevent more variants of concern from emerging.
- The National Science Foundation has awarded a highly competitive grant to a team of scientists building OpenEarthScape, a set of models and simulations to help anticipate changes in river flow, beach erosion, landslides and more.
- When blind people share photos, there is an added risk they could unknowingly capture information considered private, such as a pregnancy test or a return address. To Assistant Professor Danna Gurari, this shouldn't have to be a concern.
