The Ursaworks Robotics Club at Washington University in St. Louis secured a second-place finish at the 2024 Midwest RoboMaster Competition.

Ping-I (Dennis) Chou soon will graduate from Washington University in St. Louis and begin work at Intel. He has studied water chemistry and plastics in the environment.

As an undergraduate researcher at Washington University in St. Louis’ Atmospheric Composition Analysis Group, Guinter Dame Vogg analyzed air filters from around the globe for PM2.5, the microscopic particles that cause millions of premature deaths every year. What he saw changed his life.

Jianjun Guan, a materials scientist in the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, received a four-year more than $2 million grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to design a system of nanoparticles that deliver drugs after a heart attack much more effectively than current methods allow.

In a paper published in ACS Nano, researchers at Washington University in St. Louis outline how they used a chemical probe to light up interlocking peptides. Their technique will help scientists differentiate synthetic peptides from toxic types found in Alzheimer’s disease.

Jenna Ditto, an assistant professor of energy, environmental and chemical engineering in the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University, is taking a closer look at the chemistry of indoor dust with a three-year $453,000 grant from the National Science Foundation.

Sang-Hoon Bae, a researcher at Washington University, has developed artificial heterostructures made of freestanding 2D and 3D membranes that have an energy density up to 19 times higher than commercially available capacitors.

Ning Zhang, an assistant professor of computer science and engineering in the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University, one of three winners of the FTC’s Voice Cloning Challenge, talks about the technology he created.

Researchers at Washington University , led by Randall Martin, investigated global particulate matter, revealing health risks from trace elements.

Sanjoy Baruah, an expert in scheduling theory and safety-critical system design, has been named the Hugo F. & Ina Champ Urbauer Professor at the McKelvey School of Engineering.
