Tobacco and alcohol use are leading causes of mortality that influence risk for many complex diseases and disorders 1 . They are heritable 2,3 and etiologically related 4,5 behaviors that have been resistant to gene discovery efforts 6-11 . In sample sizes up to 1.2鈥塵illion individuals, we discovered 566 genetic...

Researchers at CU Boulder have developed virtual clinical trials for an artificial pancreas that could significantly improve treatments for those with Type 1 diabetes by tailoring medical devices and speeding up trials. The work was done through a four-year, $600,000 award from the National Science Foundation and was headed at...

A study of the bacterial slime in showerheads across the world has found US cities are hotspots for potentially harmful bacteria. Researchers found that mycobacteria is the most common bacteria in showerheads. They found it is far more prevalent in the United States than in Europe, thrives more in municipal...

As humans evolved and expanded, so too did barn swallows, new research from CU Boulder suggests The evolution of barn swallows, a bird ubiquitous to bridges and sheds around the world, might be even more closely tied to humans than previously thought, according to new study from the University of...

This summer, I had the opportunity to present my research at the 2018 World Congress of Biomechanics in Dublin, Ireland. As the premier meeting worldwide in the field of biomechanics, this was an incredible opportunity to network with scientists in this field, both within my subfield of biomechanics and far...

In this paper, we provide an approach to data-driven control for artificial pancreas systems by learning neural network models of human insulin-glucose physiology from available patient data and using a mixed integer optimization approach to control blood glucose levels in real-time using the inferred models. First, our approach learns neural...

Groups of interacting active particles, insects, or humans can form clusters that hinder the goals of the collective; therefore, development of robust strategies for control of such clogs is essential, particularly in confined environments. Our biological and robophysical excavation experiments, supported by computational and theoretical models, reveal that digging performance...

Mating activities change within a season in many animal and plant populations. In plants, selection towards early flowering is commonly observed. Pollinator鈥恗ediated selection is hypothesized to be a pervasive evolutionary force acting directionally on flowering time. However, pollinator鈥恗ediated mechanisms have rarely been tested in realistic field conditions, especially in perennial...
