The right stuff: Love of chemistry leads to distinguished atmospheric science career
This month, CSU bestowed Collett with the honor of University Distinguished Professor in Atmospheric Science. Collett’s research focuses on understanding the chemical composition of fog and clouds, and helping communities and agencies address environmental air quality concerns.
Menoni awarded Fraunhofer/Burley Prize in optical engineering
Carmen Menoni received the Fraunhofer/Burley Prize in recognition of her work on novel coatings that drive advances in optical engineering, laser-driven fusion, and laser interferometry.
CSU distinguished professor receives two awards for excellence in lasers, photonics
“One of these awards alone is a significant achievement for a faculty member,” said department head Edwin Chong. “Combined, these honors speak to Carmen’s far-reaching impact.”
CSU, Israeli experts address sustainable agricultural water issues in workshop
Engineers and scientists from Colorado State University and Israel joined with policy experts at a workshop in May to collaborate on solutions for sustainable agricultural water.
Researchers develop new approach to discover pervasive ‘forever’ chemicals known as PFAS
A team including several CSU researchers is using one of the most powerful chemical analysis instruments in the world to characterize and catalog thousands of chemical compounds in the PFAS family, so future studies can find solutions to health and environmental impacts.
Emissions, air quality and heat in urban areas: CSU researchers receive over $2.2 million
The Climate Program Office at NOAA has announced research funding that increases understanding of emissions in urban areas.
Reaching into the cosmos: Colorado State University researchers develop new mirror coatings to increase detection of gravitational waves
CSU researchers developed a new mirror coating technology that will help the international LIGO collaboration extend its reach into the cosmos.
InTERFEWS program training leaders to solve problems in food, energy, water systems
The NSF-funded program brings together students and faculty who are interested in studying food, energy and water issues and the many ways in which those systems affect each other.
Kill it with fire: CSU researchers seek solution for pervasive PFAS pollutants
CSU researchers Jens Blotevogel and Anthony Rappé recently received a $474,000 U.S. Department of Defense grant to study and improve PFAS destruction by incineration, so the contaminants can be permanently removed from the environment without producing hazardous byproducts.
Indoors, outdoors, 6 feet apart? Transmission risk of airborne viruses can be quantified
Early in the pandemic, a CSU team set out to quantify the dynamics of how aerosols like viruses travel from one person to another, under different circumstances.
