Lynch's research focuses on biomechanics, 3D tissue engineering, and cancer. Her project is titled “Dysfunctional Osteocyte Mechanoresponse in Tumor-induced Bone Disease.”

Energy grid experts Kyri Baker, assistant professor in Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering, and Bri-Mathias Hodge, associate professor in Electrical, Computer & Energy Engineering—both Fellows of the Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute (RASEI)—answered some questions for CU Boulder Today.

Zhai is a corresponding author on a November paper that explores the effectiveness of social distancing and ventilation in preventing COVID-19 transmission indoors.

An interdisciplinary team of researchers in the college are working to develop materials to enable the next generation of computing. If successful, the boundary between materials and computers may disappear altogether in the near future.

Kaitlin McCreery is the coauthor of a new paper that deals with diagnosing diseases such as osteoarthritis in soft tissue.

Soham Ghosh is the coauthor of a new paper that deals with gene accessibility and function in living beings. The findings may help us better understand why and how we age and lead to new developments in bioengineering.

Lever for Change announced five finalists for the 2030 Climate Challenge, a $10 million award launched last year to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the buildings, industry, and/or transportation sectors in the U.S. by 2030. The Challenge, sponsored by an anonymous donor, will fund proven, data-driven solutions ready to serve as a model for change in communities across the country.

Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder have developed a new, low-cost wearable device that transforms the human body into a biological battery.

The National Academy of Inventors (NAI) today announced that CU Boulder researchers Mark Rentschler and Greg Rieker have been designated as NAI Senior Members in recognition of their impact on society through extraordinary innovation.

Anna Libey, a PhD student in environmental engineering at CU Boulder, is the lead author on a new paper that compares utilities around the world and advocates for more subsidization in utility operations to provide clean water.
