Matheou’s Art, Inspired by Fluid Dynamics, on Display at National Academy of Sciences
Clouds strongly interact with solar radiation and as a result small changes in cloud cover have big impact on the Earth’s surface temperature. Currently, the effects of clouds are one of the largest sources of uncertainty in climate projections. Recent computer technology, however, is enabling scientists and engineers to create cloud simulations in controlled environments. […]
Regrowing Cartilage in a Damaged Knee Gets Closer to Fixing Arthritis
UConn bioengineers successfully regrew cartilage in a rabbit’s knee, a promising hop toward healing joints in humans, they report in the January 12 issue of Science Translational Medicine. Arthritis is a common and painful disease caused by damage to our joints. Normally pads of cartilage cushion those spots. But injuries or age can wear it […]
Master of Science Program now Accepting Applications for Advanced Manufacturing for Energy Systems (AMES)
The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) awarded the University of Connecticut at Storrs a traineeship program grant in 2018. This grant addresses workforce training needs in the early-stage technology area of advanced materials and process technologies in energy-related manufacturing. UConn has implemented a masters-level training programs designed to train a new generation […]
