On Reversing the Data Center Backlash
The New York Times features Professor Coskun and her work with Emerald AI.
Improving access to life-saving health care
Led by Associate Professor Sheila Russo (ME, MSE) and Associate Professor Tommaso Ranzani (ME, MSE), BU’s role is to develop a smarter catheter—a thin tube that combines multiple functions into one tool, a kind of Swiss Army knife for stroke treatment.
College of Engineering and BU School of Medicine Lead NIH Grant
By bringing together expertise in biomedical engineering, lung physiology, immunology, and infectious diseases, the grant will strengthen collaboration between the College of Engineering and the Aram V. Chobanian & Edward Avedisian School of Medicine.
Toward Materials That Know How to Handle Noise
Abigail Plummer earned an NSF CAREER award to develop an advanced tool kit that might someday be used to build the next generation of intelligent materials.
For Novel Nanomedicine, the Goal is Control of Chemical Cues
“This is a powerful idea, because if we can program the locations and gradients of these chemical cues, we can make immune cells move in precise, programmed ways,” says NSF CAREER award winner Michelle Teplensky.
Using AI to Help Medicines Get Where They Need to Go
How does medicine know where to go once you take it? Generally, that information is encoded directly in the medicine, and sometimes it’s relatively easy, like a pain reliever curing your headache. But the more complex the malady, the more complex the “directions” need to be. And when the medicine needs to target a specific […]
BU Partners on DOE Genesis Mission award to Advance AI-driven Plasma Physics Research
Boston University is a collaborating institution on a new U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Genesis Mission award led by Princeton University and announced by the DOE this July. The Genesis Mission supports the development and demonstration of AI-enabled scientific workflows to accelerate breakthroughs in energy, discovery science, and national security.
IGS Summer Fellows Advance Sustainability Research Projects
These fellows, who come from diverse backgrounds and fields, are united in their focus on fostering environmental sustainability and social welfare.
NSF Awards ENG $20 Million to Help Create National “Cloud Lab” Network
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded the College of Engineering $20 million to help create a national network of cloud labs, artificial intelligence-infused research facilities that can remotely run science and engineering studies. The network will allow researchers from anywhere in the country to request complex experiments and tests that they don’t have the equipment or expertise to do themselves.
Can We Train AI to Read an MRI?
The BU team’s smarter AI system for evaluating brain scan images might someday help clinicians spot diseases sooner, saving lives while cutting costs.
