Elliot Strand (MatSci PhD'23) is being honored for his PhD research, “Printed Organic Electronics for Plant and Environmental Monitoring." Strand successfully defended his thesis earlier this year and is now receiving the 2023 Best PhD Thesis Award from...
Current and former members of University of Colorado Boulder’s Heinz Research Group have earned prestigious NASA Group Achievement Awards for their research centered on designing lightweight, high-strength materials aimed at reducing the costs
Sanghamitra Neogi has earned a key Department of Defense contract to tackle a big problem with tiny electronics: microchips crippled by heat. An assistant professor in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the
New consortium aims to accelerate the introduction of the next generation of solar panels The TEAMUP consortium, that brings together researchers from Academic, Industrial and Federal Laboratories, seeks to identify and solve the factors
Say “hello” to the robots of the future: They’re soft and flexible enough to bounce off walls or squeeze into tight spaces. And when you’re done with them, you can toss these machines into a compost bin to decompose. That’s the vision of a team of
Researchers in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering and the Materials Science and Engineering Program have published new findings in Joule that could lead to the development of better hybrid lead halide perovskites – a
