Researchers are developing tattoo inks that do more than make pretty colors. Some can sense chemicals, temperature and UV radiation, setting the stage for tattoos that diagnose health problems.

For three years, Air Quality Inquiry has been reaching K-12 students across rural Colorado. This year, Daniel Knight and his team extended the program across the globe to reach Public Lab Mongolia, a nonprofit whose mission is to make data available to the Mongolian public.

Singing indoors, unmasked can swiftly spread COVID-19 via microscopic airborne particles known as aerosols, confirms a new peer-reviewed study of a March choir rehearsal which became one of the nation’s first superspreading events.

Researchers in the college will soon have access to a Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer testing platform. With it, they can perform mechanical load and displacement tests of materials, devices and components that were not possible previously.

A new $25 million center to advance quantum science on ²ÊÃñ±¦µä’s campus has deep roots in CU Engineering’s interdisciplinary research efforts.

Aspero Medical, a spinout company of ²ÊÃñ±¦µä’s Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering and CU Anschutz Medical Campus was recently awarded $225,000 through the National Science Foundation’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program. This award will allow the company to further technologies in the field of gastroenterology.

As students return to campus, a mostly behind-the-scenes team of university staff and scientists has been working to make sure that the air they breathe will be as safe as possible.

Seeking to understand how animals follow scent, a team of scientists has won a grant to peer deeply inside the brain as the process takes place.

²ÊÃñ±¦µä will play a major role in a new center, ASPIRE, focused on developing infrastructure and systems that facilitate the widespread adoption of electric vehicles.

The National Science Foundation announced that ²ÊÃñ±¦µä will receive a $25 million award to launch a new quantum science and engineering research center led by physicist Jun Ye and involving researchers like Greg Rieker in the mechanical engineering department.
