ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ innovators, JILA physicists, and university startup ColdQuanta are featured in a new film from the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade (COEDIT) explaining the importance of quantum research to the public—and promoting Colorado's extensive quantum ecosystem.

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ and UN Human Rights have announced plans to co-host the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Summit in late fall 2022. The summit is designed to engage human rights, scientific, political, educational, cultural and industry leaders to commit to specific goals that will help to slow climate change.

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ researchers attracted a record $634.4 million in fiscal year 2021 for studies that, among other things, examine how artificial intelligence can transform education, led to the United Arab Emirate’s Hope spacecraft orbiting Mars, and address threats posed by climate change in the Arctic.

A partnership between six institutions, led by ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ, the Science and Technology Center on Real-Time Functional Imaging (STROBE) is pushing electron, X-ray and nano-optical imaging to their limits by integrating state-of-the-art microscopes with advanced algorithms and big data.

A specific wavelength of ultraviolet (UV) light is not only extremely effective at killing the virus which causes COVID-19, but is also safer for use in public spaces, finds new ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ research. The findings could lead to new affordable, safe and highly effective systems for reducing viral spread.

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ climate scientist Waleed Abdalati, a professor of geography and director of CIRES, rafted a stretch of the Colorado River Saturday with senators Michael Bennet (D-Colorado) and Mitt Romney (R-Utah), to talk about how Western communities can build greater resilience to climate and weather extremes.

Researchers at ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ will take part in a $25M effort to study a natural resource that’s becoming increasingly in demand: the radio frequency spectrum. SpectrumX will bring together experts from 29 organizations to transform the landscape of spectrum research, education, collaboration and management.

Philip Makotyn, executive director of the CUbit Quantum Initiative, spoke before the committee on the Colorado Front Range quantum ecosystem, including ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ's role in quantum research, what quantum computing is (and isn't) and its applications across a variety of industries and problems.

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ has received a $2 million gift from The Anschutz Foundation to support the university’s diverse research in aerospace and national defense. The effort dovetails with a new research partnership between the CU system and the U.S. Space Force that was announced Aug. 20.

Season 2 of the Buff Innovator Insights podcast continues with more behind-the-curtain looks at some of the most ground-breaking innovations in the world, along with the personal journeys that made those discoveries possible.
