New driverless car technologies developed at a University of Delaware lab could lead to a world without traffic lights and speeding tickets. Researchers hope the innovations will bring about the development of driverless cars that use 19 to 22 percent less fuel.
Wilfred Chen will receive the 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) Food, Pharmaceutical and Bioengineering Division Award in Chemical Engineering at the 2018 AIChE Annual Meeting.
In a discovery that may have significant impact on the future of colon cancer treatment and research, scientists at the Helen F. Graham Cancer & Research Institute’s Center for Translational Cancer Research at Christiana Care Health System have defined a key signaling pathway that regulates colon cancer growth.
When homeowners make landscaping choices, they may be inadvertently turning their yards into food deserts for birds, especially if they rely on non-native plants that don't support the insect life needed to provide feed for birds.
New research reveals an unexpected benefit of large-scale offshore wind farms: the ability to lessen precipitation from hurricanes.
Reducing food waste has already been a source of attention at one of UD's main dining halls. Now work is being done to see if those efforts can be scaled up to work across the state.
As supercomputers become faster and faster, we need powerful software to keep up with the hardware. That's where parallel programming comes in.
A special issue of the journal Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering will recognize assistant professors Emily Day and Jason Gleghorn as Young Innovators, while featuring their latest research.
New research could lead to the kind of drastic changes demanded in the UN's climate change report. The study says winds in the Antarctic Ocean strengthen during the austral summer and surface waters acidify faster than can be accounted for by increases in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere alone.
A new study, focusing on a small molecule called IP6 and the role it plays in the HIV life cycle, "opens a door for development of new treatments."
Ann Manser's article on a new book by UD's Scott Caplan, associate professor of communication, on how some people use the internet to compensate for interpersonal communication issues.
How do successful social enterprises work? How do senior leaders guide their companies when it comes to being business and doing good? UD's Wendy Smith on how for-profit businesses adopting socially responsible programs can embrace paradoxical thinking to tackle society's greatest challenges.
UD engineers will be looking at using how a group of bacteria, usually associated with causing stomach troubles, could be used to create sources of sustainable energy.
At a time when changes to climate are expected to impact crop yields, UD scientists are part of an interdisciplinary team that will look to make crops more resilient to meet the demands of producing more food in climates with higher temperatures.
UD scientists have provided state transportation officials a vital new tool designed to help them monitor roadways prone to flooding and get the information they need to alert drivers to dangerous areas.
Two Delaware Democrats are dominating opponents by large margins that fall in line with the predicted “Blue Wave” natiowide. In addition to heavy leads, U.S. Sen. Tom Carper and U.S. Rep. Blunt Rochester are beating their Republican foes in areas that went heavily for Donald Trump in 2016.
A University of Delaware professor explores the effect the Internet and social media has on our well-being in a new book. One finding: The use of smartphones and other mobile devices that allow people to be online wherever they are has created new and different problems with interpersonal communication.
