Bioengineer Carolyn Mills receives Department of Energy early-career award to study nature-inspired methods for building highly organized structures.

International honor recognizes UCSB professor’s groundbreaking research and efforts to bring quantum technologies into real-world applications. 

UCSB’s Upamanyu Madhow is developing ways to use wireless signals to locate people and detect movement when disasters compromise communications and visibility.  

The advance could enable more energy-efficient optical communications in data centers and support next-generation displays.

UCSB researchers are developing an autonomous robotic system that could navigate the brain’s blood vessels, remove dangerous clots, and make lifesaving stroke treatment more accessible.
