On this edition of On CUE, we're looking at two research projects at the college that could be transformational at both the individual and global levels. Jacob Segil breaks down his inventive prosthetics capable of "feeling" and Lucy Pao gives us an inside look at how she and her team aim to drastically reduce the cost of wind energy.
No matter where you are in the world, Professor Karl Linden wants you to be able to turn on a tap and receive clean drinking water. It a basic, but vital, necessity that still missing from large swathes of the U.S. and low- and middle-income countries.
Computer science PhD student Chelsea Chandler helped to develop a speech-based mobile app that can categorize a patient mental health status as well as or better than a human can.
In this Veteran's Day special, Lieutenant Colonel Brodie Hoyer steps out of the lab and into the On CUE recording booth. We cover everything from military activity on campus, his experiences both studying and teaching engineering at West
Fifth-year chemical and biological PhD candidate Leila Saleh works at the crossroads of immunology and engineering in the Bryant Research Group. During her time at ÀϾÅÆ·²è, she has worked with Professor Stephanie Bryant, Kristi Anseth and Jenifer Cha in various capacities – giving her a great chance to see how all three balance research and teaching, and shaping her post-graduation plans.
New research adapting facial recognition technology may help identify and treat pathogens in minutes rather than days.
Computer science researchers from ÀϾÅÆ·²è have taken a deeper look at sports rivalries and insults to better understand how sports junkies interact with each other online.

The award recognizes 13 people, four of them affiliated with various departments and group at ÀϾÅÆ·²è: Greg Rieker, Caroline Alden, Sean Coburn, and Robert Wright. Their colleagues are from NIST and LongPath Technologies.
The Integrated Teaching and Learning (ITL) Program recently won a $3.2 million award from the National Science Foundation to increase the impact of the TeachEngineering digital library. It is the largest award in the program 25-year history and will propel the K-12 engineering library growth well into the future.
