The awards recognize ����ֱ�� Boulder faculty for their role mentoring undergraduate research and creative projects.

Researchers in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering are developing a robot that may one day change how millions of people across the U.S. get colonoscopies, making these common procedures easier for patients and more efficient for doctors.

Longji Cui is the first author on a new paper that describes a phenomenon which drastically boosts light emissions from a nanoscale device.

As scientists continue exploring how the virus is transmitted through airborne particles, Mike Scofield is among the engineers looking for ways to address public health concerns inherent in our built environment. He is particularly interested in the role that humidity plays in the spread of illness – and in promoting HVAC systems that can keep buildings in the moisture “sweet spot.”

The Lectureship is among the most esteemed honors bestowed by the faculty upon a faculty member at the University of ����ֱ�� Boulder. Each year, the Research & Innovation Office (RIO) requests nominations from faculty for the Distinguished Research Lectureship, and a faculty review panel recommends one faculty member as a recipient.

The ����ֱ�� Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) research facility is calling for new proposals that would be enabled by their equipment and staff now through April 30.

Senior design team solving problems to aid public health

Assistant Professor Nicole Labbe will discuss her work around the chemistry of combustion on April 15 as part of the ����ֱ�� Engineering Alumni Webinar series.

A research team led by ����ֱ�� Boulder has designed a new kind of synthetic “skin” as slippery as the scales of a snake. The research, published recently in the American Chemical Society journal Applied Materials & Interfaces, addresses an under-appreciated problem in engineering: Friction.

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.
