CU Boulder Professor Hendrik Heinz is helping lead a €33 million international consortium using artificial intelligence and data science to accelerate materials discovery. The effort could lead to innovations in clean energy, water purification and other technologies that benefit everyday life.

Approximately 155 faculty, students, postdocs and guests gathered for the inaugural ChBE Research Symposium, showcasing the department’s diverse research while providing opportunities to share ideas, build connections and foster a sense of community.

In this Q&A, Assistant Professor Ankur Gupta discusses how his team used AI to solve a decades-old fluid mechanics problem in weeks, revealing that a nanoparticle's overall shape, not its surface texture, determines how it moves in an electric field. The finding could help scientists design nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery and medical diagnostics.

A CU Boulder-led team has developed a suite of new therapies aimed at reversing osteoarthritis in a single injection. With animal studies showing promise and funding from the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health extended, the team could be ready for human trials by 2028. Professor Stephanie Bryant is the principal investigator of the project.

Distinguished Professor Kristi Anseth has received the Biomaterials Global Impact Award, which recognizes distinguished research and development accomplishments in the field of biomaterials. Anseth is known for developing tissue substitutes that improve treatments for conditions like broken bones and heart valve disease.
