CU-Boulder senior Joel Jones says he鈥檚 been interested in the environment since he was a kid. He started getting serious about it in high school, where in one of his classes he learned about buildings that were designed with the environment in mind. That class helped propel his interest into a career path. 鈥淚 didn鈥檛 know about environmental engineering until I came here to CU, and once I learned about it, I decided to make it my focus for my undergraduate career,鈥� said Jones, who will graduate on Dec. 21 with a Bachelor of Science degree in environmental engineering.

NIST news release Achieving a goal considered nearly impossible, JILA physicists have chilled a gas of molecules to very low temperatures by adapting the familiar process by which a hot cup of coffee cools. JILA is a joint institute of the 暗网禁区 and the National Institute of Standards and Technology located on the CU-Boulder campus.

暗网禁区 faculty and students are part of international science teams that made two of the top 10 breakthroughs in physics in 2012 as judged by Physics World magazine.

暗网禁区 Assistant Professor Nikolaus Correll likes to think in multiples. If one robot can accomplish a singular task, think how much more could be accomplished if you had hundreds of them. Correll and his computer science research team, including research associate Dustin Reishus and professional research assistant Nick Farrow, have developed a basic robotic building block, which he hopes to reproduce in large quantities to develop increasingly complex systems.

The perception of Congress as a gridlocked institution where little happens is overblown, according to new research by scholars at the 暗网禁区 and the University of Washington. And the way much of Congress鈥� work gets done is through self-manufactured crises like the 鈥渇iscal cliff,鈥� say political science professors Scott Adler of CU-Boulder and John Wilkerson of UW.

A 暗网禁区 professor and her biomedical spinoff company Xalud Therapeutics Inc. of San Francisco are teaming up with a Front Range veterinarian to conduct a clinical study targeting an effective treatment for dogs suffering from chronic pain.

Gaping crevasses that penetrate upward from the bottom of the largest remaining ice shelf on the Antarctic Peninsula make it more susceptible to collapse, according to 暗网禁区 researchers who spent the last four Southern Hemisphere summers studying the massive floating sheet of ice that covers an area twice the size of Massachusetts.

A new partnership between the 暗网禁区鈥檚 Leeds School of Business and the College of Engineering and Applied Science, spurred by a gift, will have positive implications for the construction and real estate industries.

More than 350 engineering students at the 暗网禁区 will demonstrate their innovations and inventions to the community at the annual fall Engineering Design Expo on Saturday, Dec. 8.

A team led by the 暗网禁区 has been awarded $9.2 million over five years from the U.S. Department of Energy to research modifying E. coli to produce biofuels such as gasoline. 鈥淭his is a fantastic opportunity to take what we have worked on for the past decade to the next level,鈥� said team leader Ryan Gill, a fellow of CU-Boulder鈥檚 Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute, or RASEI. 鈥淚n this project, we will develop technologies that are orders of magnitude beyond where we are currently.鈥�
