The inaugural season of Buff Innovator Insights, a new podcast from the Research & Innovation Office, kicked off March 18. In the first episode, we meet Margaret Murnane, a professor of physics and one of the world’s leading experts in ultrafast laser and x-ray science.
For nearly one year, a group of scientists and volunteers from across the university has met seven days a week, often sleeping just a few hours a night, to bring students back to campus safely.
CU Boulder students are studying microbes in sewage systems to uncover secrets in human ecology. They looked at viruses, bacteria and more.
CU Boulder researchers have led the way in understanding the COVID-19 pandemic, helping to reveal how the coronavirus spreads through tiny droplets, the importance of flattening “the mental health curve” and a lot more.
Matteo Mazzotti is the first author on two new studies that measure the dynamic response of the human skull, potentially providing a new and non-invasive way to monitor the cranial bone and brain. Mazzotti is a research associate in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering as part of Professor Massimo Ruzzene’s lab.
Kaitlin McCreery is the coauthor of a new paper that deals with diagnosing diseases such as osteoarthritis in soft tissue. McCreery is a doctoral student in the Neu Lab, where she studies the biophysical relationship between cells and tissues to gain insights about tissue development and pathology.
