Simulation software with humble beginnings receives $1.7 million from NSF
Professor Wolfgang Bangerth’s software has a worldwide community of users and is now on version 9.0.
For critically ill patients on life support, CSU chemistry could help them survive
Together with trauma care doctors, CSU chemists may soon play a key role in making next-generation extracorporeal life support devices more effective and less invasive.
Red or yellow? A simple paper test detects false or substandard antibiotics
Researchers have put chemistry to work on a simple, inexpensive way to identify falsified antibiotics, offering a practical solution to a real problem in the developing world.
What homebody island birds could tell us about adaptation and evolution
Researchers led by biology professor Cameron Ghalambor are launching a study of microgeographic adaptation strategies of island scrub-jays, North America’s only island-endemic bird.
Keck Foundation grants CSU $1 million to make and measure nanoscale spin waves
The next big advances in computer memory, digital storage and other electronics are going to come from very small places: the spins of individual electrons.
