Detecting tiny biomarkers circulating in our bodies is problematic and costly. Researchers are developing a cost-effective detection device using nanotechnology.

Using satellite imagery, University of Rochester scientists have provided the first direct measure of how eddy killing affects Earth’s oceans.

The award recognizes the Rochester astrophysicist’s ‘sustained efforts’ to make science and research broadly accessible through on-air commentary, popular books, Netflix documentaries, Marvel movies, and more.

Rochester geophysicists’ latest findings contradict longstanding assumptions about whether Earth’s moon ever had a magnetic shield.

In the most comprehensive, up-to-date survey of a technology that was first developed in 1987, Rochester researchers have documented the advantages of using the pulsed-laser-in-liquids technique over traditional wet laboratory methods.

Rochester researchers led by Todd Krauss, a professor of chemistry, are joining a major US Department of Energy-funded initiative to advance quantum science and technology.

University of Rochester researchers have developed SOPHIE, a virtual ‘patient’ that trains doctors in explaining end-of-life options.
