Project Description The project involves development web software development of an offline energy auditing algorithm to improve the energy efficiency of existing buildings. The web-based tool should allow multi-users to perform energy audit of their buildings. The student candidate for this project will be introduced and trained to use the...

Project Description This project is to explore/exploit the GPS/position engine within Android. Ideally making end result more more robust with higher integrity. The Android platform provides the majority of GPS/GNSS receivers across the world. Its integration within Android is interesting and many many applications on dependent on "position aware" data...

Project Description Software Defined Radios are an ever increasing popular topic. The advent of low cost USB radio dongles such as the USRP and BladeRF as well as tools such as GNU radio have allowed for radio development to move into the software domain. GPS is a satellite-based navigation system...

Project Description Stochastic Resonance (SR) has been shown to be a useful way to enhance perceptual and cognitive performance; however, there are open ended questions to the underlying neural mechanisms that induce SR. We will use neuroimaging and statistical analysis to understand how SR influences neural behavior and how it...

Project Description The Brain, AI, and Child (BAIC) lab at the University of Colorado Boulder is looking for undergraduate assistants who are interested in gaining research experiences in the intersection of computer science and neuroscience. You will be a part of an interdisciplinary team to investigate the question: “How can...

Project Description We have shown that very weak RF and magnetic fields can both increase and decrease the growth rates of HT1080 fibrosarcoma cancer cells and bacteria. These experiments are coupled with measurements of the changes in reactive oxygen species, ROS and other signaling molecules. Currently the measurements of the...

Project Description The goal of the project is to develop a procedure to prepare single crystals of hybrid metal halide perovskite semiconductors (MHPs) with mixed cation or anion compositions. This will involve comparing the various growth methods outlined in the literature, as well as exploring novel techniques, to obtain optimal...

Project Description Western honey bee behavior and communication has been a subject of study for hundreds of years, yet much remains unknown about how they coordinate with each other to succeed as a colony without a central leader. In the Peleg lab, we investigate how they accomplish tasks such as...

Project Description The purpose of this project is to evaluate bones from humans and mice with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), where hyperglycemia and accumulation of increased collagen cross-links embrittle bone material. Humans with T1DM have a significantly elevated risk of bone fracture. This study will involve performing mechanical testing...
