Three UND researchers recently appeared on an episode of “The Human-Centric AI Podcast” to talk about “eye tracking technology and how it’s transforming the landscape of human factors research.” The guests from UND included Philip Brandt, senior research scientist at UND RIAS; Montel Williams, postdoctoral research fellow; and F. Richard Ferraro, Chester Fritz Distinguished Professor […]

David DeMuth, VCSU physicist and UND adjunct professor, invites UND professors Tim Young and Wayne Barkhouse to assist in computational research for groundbreaking neutrino detection program

Efforts by UND researchers to transform the state into a hub to produce rare earth elements (REEs) and critical minerals (CMs) continue to move forward, and the pilot production facility, located off Mill Road in Grand Forks, has begun to produce concentrated mixtures of the compounds. This most recent development comes on the heels of […]

The first pair of boots to touch the moon’s surface were designed by GE for the Apollo 11 mission. Made from silicon rubber, they were rugged and made to withstand extreme conditions. While their functional design has evolved over time, there is still room for improvement. UND’s Jesse Rhoades, Advanced Manufacturing Instructor Nick Bittner of Cankdeska […]

Behavioral health disorders, which range from substance use disorders to suicidality and anxiety, directly impact 20 percent of adults in the United States. Research in the area is broad as it encompasses not only emotional, social and psychological health, but also a similarly holistic approach to treating mental and physical disorders. While the field is […]

GRAND FORKS, N.D. – The U.S. Department of Energy has selected the Heartland Hydrogen Hub (HH2H) to advance a regional clean energy project. The funding award is under negotiations for up to $925 million. HH2H is a collaborative initiative that will produce low-carbon hydrogen, decarbonize regional supply chains, and create clean energy jobs across Minnesota, […]

The National Science Foundation’s Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) program has awarded a four-year, $4 million-grant to UND and seven partner institutions and organizations to advance tribal energy sovereignty. The project, referred to as the “Sustainable Engineering Infrastructures and Solutions for Tribal Energy Sovereignty” program, will be led by two faculty from the Chemical Engineering department: Wayne Seames, Chester […]

The Energy & Environmental Research Center at the University of North Dakota was awarded $38 million from the U.S. Department of Energy for a carbon capture and storage project.

Along with five other regional universities, UND has been awarded nearly $1 million from the U.S. National Science Foundation’s Regional Innovation Engines (NSF Engines) program. UND leads one of the 44 teams nationwide in receiving one of the first-ever NSF Engines Development Awards, which aims to help partners collaborate to create economic, societal and technological opportunities […]

Christian Nairy wasn’t sure he had the time to tackle another research project at UND. He had plenty to do in completing a Ph.D. in atmospheric sciences. He changed his mind when he was offered the chance to fly directly into snowstorms to gather atmospheric data for NASA. Nairy was asked to join the project […]
