New research sheds light on how deep-sea “comb jellies” adapt and survive at extreme pressures. The work may inform what’s known about the human body — in particular, how a specific lipid called plasmalogen found in nerve cells might work in our brains.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently approved two new wound management products that include patented hydrogels invented by University of Delaware researchers. The unique UD hydrogel materials self-assemble to form a 3D matrix compatible with living cells.
Led by the University of Delaware, a team of researchers assessed forest extent in Mexico using satellite data and ground inventories with the goal of improving accuracy in forest monitoring. The research will improve future data collection efforts and enhance decision-making for forest management.
Autistic young adults face many barriers to employment and often struggle to reconcile their hopes and expectations for a future career during vocational planning.
University of Delaware students had the ability to get a first-time, hands-on encounter with anatomy thanks to new virtual anatomy tables that can isolate ligaments, tissues, and arteries in the hand. UD is one of few schools in the country to offer this cutting-edge tech.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health, visits the University of Delaware on Friday, May 3, for a chat about crisis decision making. The visit is part of the Disaster Research Center’s 60th anniversary.
At a least a dozen University of Delaware students are leading a NASA-supported mission as part of the CubeSat Launch Initiative, which provides an opportunity to take part in a real mission.
The University of Delaware will host a visit and thought leader presentation by NASA’s head of science Dr. Nicola (Nicky) Fox on Thursday, April 18. Fox directs about 100 NASA missions to explore the universe, laying the foundation for the robotic and human expeditions of the future.
A University of Delaware professor is testing interventions that address the psychosocial needs of African American patients with cancer and their families, with the goal of boosting communication skills and decreasing anxiety and depression for children whose parents have cancer.
University of Delaware researchers are studying how the brain controls movement and how motor skills are learned in health and disease.
In a new study published in the American Educational Research Journal, Roderick L. Carey, assistant professor in the University of Delaware's College of Education and Human Development, offers a rich, ethnographic case study on how Black and Latinx boys imagine their postsecondary futures.
A new study offers potential insights into how and when we fill out March Madness brackets. The paper found that people are more risk seeking (more likely to predict a relatively improbable outcome) in their later forecasts and are thus more likely to make an incorrect prediction for them.
A University of Delaware lab is now pioneering the use of video games – specifically Nintendo Switch's Ring Fit – as an intervention to enhance movement and motor skills for children with autism. The research further demonstrates the positive impact of exercise-based games on cognition and social interactions.
The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs recognized the University of Delaware as one of the colleges and universities with the highest number of students selected for the Fulbright U.S. Student Program.
