In laboratories across the University of Delaware, scholars are uncovering new insights about the human body: how a compound in red wine might protect joint cartilage from damage, how bad posture wears down the discs in your back, how your knee heals after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear, and more.
Lori Pollock, Alumni Distinguished Professor of Computer and Information Sciences, received an Undergraduate Research Mentoring Award from the National Center for Women & Information Technology.
She is engineering membrane-wrapped nanoparticles for targeted ribonucleic acid (RNA) delivery to breast cancer cells.
The University of Delaware is establishing a new institute to accelerate research in data science, and bioinformatics pioneer Cathy Wu will serve as the founding director.
A modern-day version of the 20th-century space race, companies and governments worldwide are scurrying to build an what’s called an exascale computer, which could do a billion billion calculations per second. UD computer scientists team with Oak Ridge National Lab to program apps for next-generation supercomputer.
Essential information about medical discoveries is often buried inside the graphs, charts, photographs, and other images that illustrate research journals. Large-scale analysis of images along with the text could soon be possible, thanks to a $1.9 million grant from the National Institutes of Health.
UD is committed to the success of women in engineering. In honor of Women’s History Month, here are just a few of the women who set the course for the engineers of today and tomorrow.
