Yu Gao, a postdoctoral associate in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering, is the lead author of a new paper in Biomaterials Science that is highlighted on the back cover.
New findings from CU Boulder researchers in Physical Review Applied show that nanoscale structures on the surfaces of silicon membranes can significantly change the way that heat travels through the bulk of the membrane.
Looking back, 2020 was a year unlike any other (some might even say, “unprecedented”), but that didn’t stop us from doing what we do best: engineering. That’s why we gathered our top 10 moments to wrap up 2020.
A new paper co-authored by CU Boulder researchers on Atlantic salmon could have far-reaching implications for conservation and farming of the iconic species, as well as our overall understanding of genetics.
A team from the center recently published results from a pilot impact evaluation of trail bridges in rural Rwanda in PLOS ONE. They installed sensors to monitor use at 12 bridge sites constructed by Denver-based nonprofit Bridges to Prosperity.
A simple, scratch-and-sniff test could play a key role in curbing the spread of COVID-19, at a fraction of the cost of high-tech tests that are difficult to scale and take longer to return results, new CU Boulder research suggests.
The Outstanding Dissertation Award is awarded annually to one student whose dissertation is of extremely high quality and contributes significantly to our understanding of the subject matter.
