Faculty
- Zamani wants to use real-life data, rather than mathematical models, to study and control autonomous systems with both software and physical components, bridging the gap between academia and industry and ensuring safety for all users.
- Six faculty members within the College of Engineering and Applied Science received CAREER Awards from the National Science Foundation in 2022.
- Shideh Dashti is an associate professor in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering at ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Boulder's College of Engineering and Applied Science. Her research is focused on geotechnical engineering, centrifuge modeling, and designing resilient infrastructure in the wake of earthquakes and climate-related natural disasters.
- Global cement production accounts for 7% of annual greenhouse gas emissions in large part through the burning of quarried limestone. Now, a ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Boulder-led research team has figured out a way to make cement production carbon neutral—and even carbon negative—by pulling carbon dioxide out of the air with the help of microalgae.
- Today’s offshore wind turbines can tower more than 490 feet above ground, their spinning blades churning out up to 8 megawatts (MW) each—about enough to power 4000 homes in the U.S. But with their increasing size comes challenges.
- The Pew Charitable Trust announced today that Assistant Professor Wyatt Shields has been selected as a 2022 Pew Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences.
- Scientists at LongPath and ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Boulder are using new laser technology to do what other technologies have struggled to do for years: detect natural gas, which is invisible to the eye, leaking from pipes at sites like this, in real time.
- the AB Nexus program announced its fourth round of grant awards to faculty from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus and the University of Colorado Boulder.
- After nearly three decades serving the College of Engineering and Applied Science, Professor Jana Milford is set to retire August 2022. Milford has held many titles during her distinguished career – from Department of Mechanical Engineering Chair and the first director of the Environmental Engineering Program, to founding faculty advisor for the Engineering GoldShirt Program.
- Presentation materials from the Interdisciplinary Research Theme Blitz and Poster Session held in early April are now available online for review by the ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Boulder community.
