The daylong conference brought together scientists, engineers and technical experts from Brown and the Department of Energy’s National Laboratories to strengthen existing partnerships and enable new collaborations.
In a breakthrough that could help revolutionize wireless communication, researchers unveiled a novel method for manipulating terahertz waves, allowing them to curve around obstacles instead of being blocked by them.
The novel approach helps advance wireless sensor technology and paves the way for one day using large populations of inconspicuous sensors in implantable and wearable biomedical microdevices.
As an engineer, professor, researcher, and provost, Frank Doyle had many opportunities throughout his career to hone his leadership skills. But it wasn’t in the classroom or the lab where Doyle gleaned some of his most critical lessons in leadership — it was on the soccer field as a referee over the last 20 years.
Advancing a commitment to accessible robotics education, the Ph.D. student is researching how to simultaneously control multiple drones and teaching others how to build and operate them.
After taking a leave of absence from her studies to kickstart a keyboard business, chemical engineering Ph.D. candidate Ana Oliveira Kannan has returned to complete her dissertation.
The early-career grant will help Daniel Harris establish a more complete and unified physical understanding of particles at interfaces, and share new experimental designs and methods that others can accessibly adapt for use in related research.
As one of the few Brown University faculty with a Ph.D. focused on the design of complex systems, the newest professor of the practice in the School of Engineering is uniquely qualified to launch a new course in the undergraduate curriculum.
Beyond the chance to make, shake and snack on the houses, the gingerbread challenge builds confidence, sparks creativity and hones essential engineering skills in Rhode Island Girl Scouts.
Researchers found that one of the most promising electrolytes for designing longer lasting lithium batteries has complex nanostructures that act like micelle structures do in soaped water.
Experiments by a Brown-led research team investigated belly flop mechanics and found surprising insights about air-to-water impacts that could be useful for marine engineering applications.
In a ceremony at the White House, Biden awarded Suresh, a professor at large at Brown University’s School of Engineering, the nation’s highest scientific honor.
Provost announces the establishment of biennial Subra Suresh Symposium at the Frontiers of Technology and Society, honoring the former NSF Director and Brown Professor at Large.
As part of Rhode Island Startup Week, business leaders, investors and entrepreneurs convened in Providence to connect with Brown scientists launching breakthrough technologies across health, life sciences and biotechnology.
The new Institute for Biology, Engineering and Medicine at Brown University is developing and advancing research collaborations to produce biomedical ideas and innovations with clinical impact.
