A new NSF-funded research center in the UWM College of Engineering & Applied Science will research high-performance concrete and greener methods of making concrete so that industry collaborators can bring discoveries into use.
Mahsa Dabagh is building a virtual model of a real human tumor, using data that characterizes the tissue on a molecular level.
The gift is one of the largest given to a school of public health across the country. It will support faculty excellence and student achievement and advance health equity across Wisconsin and beyond.
Cichlids represent the most diverse adaptions of vertebrates in the world, and most of them live in the freshwater African Great Lakes. Michael Pauers of UW-Milwaukee and Titus Phiri, at the Malawi Department of Fisheries, have added several new species of the colorful fish – in the genus Labeotropheus.
Researchers built a mathematical model that proves the phenomenon of “momentum” in a single NFL game is real rather than random. The model also predicts a game’s outcome based on the research team's definition of momentum.
Cells communicate with themselves and their cellular environment through mechanical bonds. This work advances understanding of the role of these forces on proteins as they interact to accomplish their biological functions, including the control of cancer.
UWM graduates support the companies in the production of molybdenum-99, the parent of technetium-99m, the most widely used radioisotope in the world for diagnostic medical imaging. The materials are often abbreviated as Mo-99 and Tc-99m.)
Donor supports two-year old program, started during the pandemic, which pairs university students with younger students for virtual academic support.
Taking a risk and praising a competitor wins over consumers on Twitter, especially skeptical ones, according to this study. And that turns conventional wisdom about acknowledging competitors on its head.
Academy Award nominated actor Willem Dafoe will return to his alma mater, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, on Sunday, May 22, to receive an honorary Doctor of Arts degree and be the featured speaker at the university’s two commencement ceremonies.
Consumers who want a hearing aid must obtain a prescription and make the purchase through an audiologist. And that’s expensive, often running in the thousands of dollars. An “over the counter” hearing device being developed at UW-Milwaukee costs much less, but works just as well as a hearing aid for people with mild to moderate hearing loss.
One population of female common yellowthroats prefers males with larger black masks, but another group of females favors a larger yellow bib. A new study has found that both kinds of ornaments are linked to superior genes.
UWM professor Thomas Haigh has collaborated on a new history book, chronicling how computers developed from room-filling machines to microchips, and what that means for us.
Certain biological events, such as proteins changing their shapes to perform some functions, occur so quickly that current methods of molecular imaging cannot capture them. Now, a research team has created a machine-learning technique that can “fill in” missing data needed to document proteins in action in time scales of a few quadrillionths of a second.
