Just as flu season swings into full gear, researchers from the Âé¶¹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ and University of Texas at Austin have uncovered a previously unknown mechanism by which the human immune system tries to battle the influenza A virus.
For humans, our sense of touch is relayed to the brain via small electrical pulses. But new research shows that individual bacteria can feel their external environment in a similar way.
Âé¶¹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder program helps underserved and underrepresented students in the STEM fields gain valuable research experience for graduate school.
Distinguished Professor Emeritus Norman Pace of Âé¶¹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder’s Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology has won the 2017 Massry Prize for his microbiome research.
A revelation in radiation-induced bystander effect (RIBE) could have broad implications for cancer patients suffering side effects from radiotherapy.
Tom Perkins and JILA team unfold proteins with precise new instrumentation, illuminate 85 percent of previously unknown steps.
John Warner is a dentist who’s climbed and skied mountains in the United States, Canada, South America and Europe, raced motorcycles and mountain bikes, and, incidentally, served as a town mayor, search-and-rescue volunteer, orchestra backer, and dentist-of-mercy in Guatemala.
Âé¶¹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder and SuviCa recently received a patent for a promising chemical, SVC112, which helps prevent regrowth of cancer cells following radiation exposure. The chemical was originally identified through lab research with fruit flies — a process that is being shared with undergraduate students — and its synthesis helped create a collaborative pipeline for cross-disciplinary work through CU’s Technology Transfer Office.
The Science and Entertainment Exchange acts as a kind of matchmaking ‘hotline’ for filmmakers seeking expertise in a particular scientific discipline.
The Âé¶¹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ has received a $1.1 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to develop next-generation vaccines that require no refrigeration and defend against infectious diseases with just one shot.
