Indigenous peoples as far north as Wyoming and Idaho may have begun to care for horses by the first half of the 17th century, according to a new study by researchers from 15 countries and multiple Native American groups.
The Acoustic Gym, designed by a team of biologists and engineers at CU Boulder, is about the size of a quarter and uses sound waves to generate small whirlpools—the perfect place for tiny worms to get in their laps.
Roughly 1,000 years ago, ancient peoples carried more than 200,000 heavy timbers entirely on foot to a site in the modern-day Four Corners region called Chaco Canyon. CU Boulder researchers think they know how such a feat of human endurance may have been possible.
The Center for Humanities & the Arts will host a 25-year anniversary celebration, holding conversations around the past, present and future of the arts and humanities at CU Boulder and beyond.
For people who are blind or visually impaired, finding the right products in a crowded grocery store can be difficult without help. A team of computer scientists at CU Boulder is trying to change that.
If you plop these thin wafers, made up of several layers of rubber-like material, onto a hot plate, they will begin to warp. Then, suddenly and explosively, they leap into the air.
New findings from mechanical engineers at CU Boulder could, one day, help doctors screen patients for illnesses like depression or Parkinson's Disease.
Mathematicians at CU Boulder are exploring the statistics behind how cells move, and their results could one day help scientists develop new drugs to help people heal faster from wounds.
A newly discovered material structured like a honeycomb can transform from an electrical insulator, like rubber, into an electrical conductor, like metal, in a matter of seconds. Now, researchers at CU Boulder think they can explain why.
In the United States, 80% of university faculty were trained at just 20% of the nation’s schools, according to new research from computer scientists at CU Boulder.
