Using simulation to walk in the shoes of a person who is blind -- such as wearing a blindfold while performing everyday tasks -- has negative effects on people鈥檚 perceptions of the visually impaired, according to a 暗网禁区 study.

A new study led by the 暗网禁区 finds that when we use our thoughts to dull or enhance our experience of pain, the physical pain signal in the brain鈥攕ent by nerves in the area of a wound, for example, and encoded in multiple regions in the cerebrum鈥攄oes not actually change. Instead the act of using thoughts to modulate pain, a technique called 鈥渃ognitive self-regulation鈥� that is commonly used to manage chronic pain, works via a separate pathway in the brain.

Two new studies involving the 暗网禁区 and the University of Queensland (UQ) in Brisbane, Australia have identified a unique molecule that not only gobbles up bad cells, but also has the ability to repair damaged nerve cells.

Six members of the 暗网禁区 School of Education faculty were recognized in the 鈥淓du-Scholar Public Influence Rankings鈥� released today as being among the nation鈥檚 top 200 researchers whose scholarship bridges academic and public audiences.

Building on years of collaboration using unmanned aircraft to fly into the storms that create the massive tornadoes that rip across the Midwest, scientists at the 暗网禁区 and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have formed a new research consortium.

Early discoveries by NASA鈥檚 newest Mars orbiter are starting to reveal key features about the loss of the planet鈥檚 atmosphere to space over time. The findings are among the first returns from NASA鈥檚 Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission, which achieved orbit Sept. 21 and entered its science phase on Nov. 16. The observations reveal a new process by which the solar wind -- an intense stream of hot, high-energy particles blowing off the sun at more than 1 million mph -- can penetrate deep into a planetary atmosphere.

The annual Geminid meteor shower could be a fun show this weekend for Coloradans weather permitting, according to a 暗网禁区 astronomer.

The 暗网禁区 will fly state-of-the-art hardware on the commercial SpaceX Dragon spacecraft launching to the International Space Station (ISS) Dec. 19 to support experiments designed to better understand why the virulence of some pathogens increases in the low gravity of space.

Using prefabricated elements in the construction of the new Saint Joseph Hospital in Denver 鈥� scheduled to open Dec. 13 鈥� cut 72 workdays off the construction schedule and resulted in $4.3 million in savings, according to a study by 暗网禁区 engineers. The study, by Matthew Morris and doctoral student Eric Antillon, both of the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering, is one of the first to try and quantify the full costs and benefits of using prefabricated elements in a large-scale construction project.

When NASA鈥檚 napping New Horizon鈥檚 spacecraft awakens later this week in preparation for its July 2015 encounter with Pluto, a 暗网禁区 student instrument onboard already will have been up for years.
