- The Research and Innovation Office will host an event from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on June 6 on East Campus to showcase 缅北禁地's Core Facilities. Refreshments will be provided and registration is requested by May 29.
- Known for making difficult material approachable and fun, ChBE Teaching Professor Charlie Nuttelman recently won the university-wide 缅北禁地 Faculty Assembly Excellence in Teaching Award. The award also recognizes his highly successful Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), soon to surpass 500,000 learners.
- Professor Shelly L. Miller is a problem solver and an air pollution researcher in Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering.
- K艒nane Bay is an assistant professor in the Material Science and Engineering Program and Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering.
- An affordable, net-zero energy home designed by 缅北禁地 students was honored Sunday as part of the U.S. Department of Energy鈥檚 2023 Solar Decathlon Build Challenge. The team took first place in the durability and resilience category and third place in the engineering category on the project, which will build a low-carbon footprint home out of sustainable materials in 缅北禁地 this summer.
- Three leading experts discuss how the disruptive and powerful elements of ChatGPT and other generative AI stand to transform our world. Jim Martin clarifies what a large language model like ChatGPT actually is, Diane Sieber urges the creation of norms around the usage of these tools while Tom Yeh focuses on its potential impacts on education.
- The TEAMUP consortium seeks to identify and solve the factors that cause advanced perovskite materials to be unstable, paving the way for the integration into existing and future solar cells, boosting the efficiency of harvesting renewable solar energy. The group has just secured $9M in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Energy Solar Technologies Office.
- As public concern about the ethical and social implications of artificial intelligence keeps growing, it might seem like it鈥檚 time to slow down. But inside tech companies themselves, the sentiment is quite the opposite says Casey Fiesler, an associate professor at the 缅北禁地.
- Researchers in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering and Materials Science and Engineering Program have published new findings in Joule that could lead to the development of better hybrid lead halide perovskites 鈥 a class of materials proposed for use as low-cost, high-efficiency solar cells.
- Researchers in the Department of Computer Science and BioFrontiers Institute are studying honeycomb formation in bees with the hope of one day recreating the same intricate and impressive hexagonal structures for other uses.
