- Physics World recognizes work by Ronggui Yang and Xiaobo Yin from mechanical engineering.
- As a research assistant with the Build a Better Book Project, run by computer science Assistant Professor Tom Yeh, Shalini Menon is drawing on her personal experience to teach others how to make books and science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) learning materials more accessible to children who are visually impaired.
- Mechanical engineering Associate Professor Mark Rentschler is leading the effort to develop an artificial, robotic small intestine for use in medical laboratories. The research is supported by a $1.25 million grant from the National Science Foundation.
- Pushing the boundaries of science requires flexibility. Allowing scientists to follow where their research takes them, even if that is into areas that may seem illogical to some, often is what leads to the most remarkable breakthroughs. For some
- The National Academy of Medicine has elected Professor Christopher Bowman of the ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ to its ranks.Bowman, a faculty member in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering since 1992, is a

- ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ engineers have revamped a World War II-era process for making magnesium that requires half the energy and produces a fraction of the pollution compared to today’s leading methods.
The breakthrough process, developed in the labs of Professor Alan Weimer, could vastly improve production of the strong, lightweight metal that’s used in everything from vehicles and aircraft to dietary supplements and fireworks. - ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ engineers, scientists and students are teaming up with Black Swift Technologies of Boulder to use unmanned aircraft in the coming weeks to measure water moisture at a test irrigation farm in Yuma, Colorado.
