Facial recognition technology is now embedded in everything from our phones and computers to surveillance systems at the mall and airport. But it tends to misidentify certain populations and can be used to discriminate. Microsoft Research Fellow Morgan Klaus Scheuerman wants to change that.
Researchers from JILA, Yale University and the University of California, Berkeley, have used an innovative technique called "quantum squeezing" to dramatically speed up the search for one candidate for dark matter in the lab.
Since the 1980s, Colorado's small mammals have made an ominous trek—climbing, on average, 400 feet uphill in elevation to escape from climate change.
Researchers have found a way to speed up the search for dark matter using technology from quantum computing. Postdoctoral fellow Benjamin Brubaker shares on The Conversation.
We spoke with Jose-Luis Jimenez, chemistry professor and CIRES fellow, about this new trend and why masks continue to be such an important tool in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.
The term “polar vortex” is often used loosely to refer to unusually cold, snowy storms. The stratospheric polar vortex itself won’t appear in your backyard, but it does influence winter weather. Researchers Zachary Lawrence and Amy Butler share on The Conversation.
Student musicians and researchers created personalized lullabies for Colorado families and studied the effects of the project on the mental health and well-being of children and parents.
Bark beetle outbreaks and wildfire alone are not a death sentence for Colorado’s beloved forests—but when combined, their toll may become more permanent, new CU Boulder research shows.
