Dr. Arum Han and his team have developed a new technology that can analyze cell properties through the use of single-cell electrorotation, which can aid in many life science applications such as disease diagnosis.
Research by Dr. Ranjana Mehta and doctoral student Oshin Tyagi sought to understand how older men and women adapt to fatiguing tasks. The Human Factors and Ergonomics Society recently recognized them for their work toward elevating equity and inclusivity in research.
The J. Mike Walker '66 Department of Mechanical Engineering is joined by 10 new faculty members. Six of the new faculty join the tenured and tenure track and four join the academic professional track.
Most polymers are not easily degradable, meaning they do not break down at the molecular level and they stay in the environment forever. Using 3D printing, carbon dioxide and salt, researchers at Texas A&M University are creating safe, degradable polymers.
Sponsored by the Los Alamos National Laboratory, Texas A&M University’s College of Engineering hosted Aggies Invent, where students answered the challenges facing nuclear security. First-place was awarded to team DeGenerators.
