The Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) facility will host a two-day workshop and training session on Material 3D-Nanofabrication and Characterization from 8 a.m.- 5 p.m. April 21 and 22 on the CU Boulder campus.
Assistant Professor Mija Hubler is a recipient of a three year, $548,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award for her proposal “Mechanical Modeling of Living Building Materials for Structural Applications.”
The Odor2Action Network brings together international scientists to understand a fundamental problem in neuroscience—how odors lead to behavioral actions. Using the olfactory circuit, researchers aim to achieve an end-to-end understanding of how brains organize and process information from odors in the environment to guide adaptive behaviors, and how these actions modify odor perception.
The College of Engineering and Applied Science will host a research blitz and poster session featuring work from within the interdisciplinary research themes from 3 - 6 p.m. on April 12 in the DLC lobby and first floor meeting spaces.
Mechanical Engineering Professor Francois Barthelat is hosting a webinar at noon on March 16 via Zoom that explores how seashells, fish fins and other biological materials can inspire better engineering materials in the future.
Assistant Professor C. Wyatt Shields IV is the recipient of a 2022 Office of Naval Research (ONR) Young Investigator Program Award for his proposal “Mapping Immune Cell Responses to High Pressures in Decompression Illness.”
Two CU Boulder professors have been elected to the National Academy of Engineering, one of the highest honors an engineer can receive in their career.
The Natural Hazards Center on campus will host another virtual forum at 2 p.m. on March 31 via Zoom related to the recent Boulder County Fires. Participants from all disciplines and from any organization or institution are welcome to attend.
Assistant Professor C. Wyatt Shields IV is the recipient of a National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) award for his proposal “Shape-Encoded Electrokinetic Particles for Multiplexed Biosensing.” This project seeks to develop a new method of early identification of disease biomarkers, while also facilitating outreach and education to students at Northglenn High School.
Distinguished professor honored “for developing high-efficiency microwave transmitters and active antenna arrays for wireless communication systems and for engineering education.”
