Clark Scholars Get a Jump on Laboratory Research
A select group of UT Dallas' sharpest students have fanned out across campus this summer to work in labs and ask the kinds of research questions that challenge even the saltiest of faculty mentors. Twenty students are spending ten weeks in the prestigious Anson L. Clark Summer Research Program, which selects only the highest achieving incoming freshmen or returning "Clark students" each year read more
Student's Ionosphere Research Wins NSF Prize
An investigation of the ionosphere and its interactions with the Earth's magnetic field netted a UT Dallas graduate student a prize at a competition sponsored by the National Science Foundation for researchers who study the upper atmosphere. Angeline Burrell won the Best Poster prize for ionosphere thermosphere research at the 25th annual NSF meeting on Coupling Energetic and Dynamics in Atmospheric Regions (CEDAR), held recently in Boulder, Colo. read more
Undergrad Research Program Expands in Size, Scope
Studying a molecular model for psychosis and finding new ways to measure how cells metabolize fat were two of the research topics presented recently by a group of UT Dallas undergraduates on the campus of UT Southwestern Medical Center. A recent poster session highlighted the accomplishments of students in the expanded Green Fellowship Program, in which UT Dallas undergraduates spend a semester immersed in research at UT Southwestern. read more
Nanotech Speakers Hold Promise for Sonar Uses
UT Dallas researchers have found that carbon nanotube sheets perform well as underwater sound generators and noise-canceling speakers, two highly desirable traits for submarine sonar and stealth capabilities. The study, which was published in the American Chemical Society's journal Nano Letters, reveals that nanoscience speakers perform as well underwater as they do on land, and that one day they could replace traditional submarine sonar arrays. read more
