A team of ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ University and ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ University Medical Center researchers has received a $3.1 million NIH grant to develop advanced patient-specific cochlear implant stimulation models for customized implant programming.

²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ's Data Science Institute researchers are developing a model to use big data to address the impact of COVID-19 on policies, procedures, and resources now and in the future. The tool will help Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ evaluate short- and long-term resource needs in order to be fully prepared to meet patients' needs.

The goal of the project—Risk-Aware Market Clearing—is a blueprint for an end-to-end, data-driven approach that balances cost and minimizes system-level risk. Market clearing is the process that keeps the supply level to the demand with no leftover of either.

A collaborative project from clinicians at ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ University Medical Center and the ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ Institute for Surgery and Engineering demonstrates a simple, low-cost retrofit solution that improves the safety of intubation boxes used while treating COVID-19 patients. Read More

Mechanical engineering professors Joshua Caldwell and Kelsey Hatzell are inaugural recipients of Flowers Family faculty awards. Caldwell is the Flowers Family Chancellor Faculty Fellow in Engineering. Hatzell is the Flowers Family Dean's Faculty Fellow in Engineering.

An international research team that includes ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ engineers is the first to successfully separate two ions with very, very small size differences, a major advancement in separation science with widespread potential application.

The paper, sharing findings from a study of pyrite nanoparticles led by undergraduate mechanical engineering student Masahiro Kato and Ph.D. students Nicole Moering and Madeleine Fort, appeared this week in Materials Today Advances.

Runners could soon keep up with cyclists, thanks to a new exoskeleton invention from a team of mechanical engineers at ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ which would bring cycling mechanics to the human body. Read More

Hiba Baroud has received a 2020 NSF Faculty Early CAREER Development grant to boost community resilience and sustainability through a three-pronged project that starts with a better understanding of how people and infrastructures interact during hazards.

A new tool developed by ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ engineers, in collaboration with clinical and informatic experts, can unearth novel co-morbidities from routinely collected, anonymized electronic medical records.

A five-year partnership with ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ University’s Institute for Space and Defense Electronics will leverage the expertise of ISDE engineers and faculty members within the ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ School of Engineering to create a ready source of technological updates for all L3Harris radiation effects engineers.

For 17 years, ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ students and researchers have analyzed data with a method much faster than any normal laptop: a supercomputer steps away from the Commons Center. The Advanced Computing Center for ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ and Education (ACCRE), which originated in 2003, is housed in the Hill Center.

Maithilee Kunda and postdoc Roxanne Rashedi have developed a game called Film Detective to help adolescents on the autism spectrum learn to decode social scenarios.

Five engineering Ph.D. students have received prestigious Dwight David Eisenhower Transportation Fellowships and one of them was named the top Eisenhower Fellow in the U.S.

²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ engineers are working on a process that ultimately may allow patients to get blood test results fast.

Piran Kidambi has received a 2020 National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development grant.

²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ mechanical engineers took home top awards at the Dec. 6 meeting of the Materials ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ Society in Boston, Massachusetts. Mechanical engineering professor Kelsey Hatzell received the Materials ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ Society Nelson “Buck” Robinson Science and Technology Award for Renewable Energy. Hatzell was selected from more than 25 candidates for her research contributions to renewable energy....

John Gore, director of the ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ University Institute of Imaging Science, has been appointed to a National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine standing committee to advise the Department of State on unexplained health effects on U.S. government employees and their families at overseas embassies.
