Researchers from Texas A&M Engineering and the Ecole Nationale Superieure d'Arts et Métiers are collaborating to advance the science and technology for biocomposite manufacturing. Biocomposites are a composite material formed by a matrix (resin) and a reinforcement of natural fibers, that is more environmentally friendly.
Dr. Arum Han is leading a clinical trial-on-a-chip program to develop new drugs to help prevent preterm births with a $3.8 million grant from the National Institutes of Health’s National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences.
There is a growing body of evidence showing that racial and ethnic minorities are more affected by severe illness, and more likely to be hospitalized, from COVID-19 compared to white people. This disparity can be only partially explained by the disproportionate rates of underlying medical conditions, such as asthma, diabetes, and obesity, seen among Black/African American people.
A team of researchers at the Precise Advanced Technologies and Health Systems for Underserved Populations center are developing a new way to approach diet monitoring to benefit the more than 30 million Americans living with Type 2 diabetes.
A team of researchers is creating mobile robots for military applications that can determine, with or without human intervention, whether wheels or legs are more suitable to travel across terrains. The adaptable Wheel-and-Leg Transformable Robot can traverse over varying surfaces, including staircases, more efficiently.
Dr. Chandler Benjamin and his team are using material characterization and nonlinear models to help health care providers better identify the life threatening condition of aortic dissection.
A physical activity expert addresses ways to keep students active in this "new normal."
A Texas A&M expert looks at why some underrepresented students are forgotten in gifted education and how school districts can change that.
Students at Texas A&M are offering virtual tutoring sessions, free of charge, to students across the country.
Nearly half the world’s population lives within 100 kilometers of a coastline, putting them at risk of rising sea levels, eroding coastlines and more frequent storms and hurricanes. Dr. Jens Figlus and his team are safeguarding these coastal communities through better designed hybrid coastal structures.
Recently, the Texas A&M University College of Engineering kicked off an online version of its Research Experiences for Undergraduates program. Taking place over the summer, this fully remote program gives 58 students from around the U.S. valuable research experience in computational modeling, theory and data-driven topics in science and engineering.
White police officers are far more likely to use force than their nonwhite counterparts, especially in minority neighborhoods, according to a study from Texas A&M University researchers.

In a surgery suite, it’s all hands on deck. Using an endoscope, a tube with a light and camera attached, can sometimes hinder that mobility, a problem a team of seniors worked to solve with their final capstone project.
Texas A&M University, through its unique Engineering Medicine (EnMed) partnership with Houston Methodist Hospital, is stepping up to help the health care system keep up with the demand for medical supplies brought on by the increasing number of confirmed and suspected COVID-19 cases.
Dr. Krystal Simmons, clinical associate professor in the Department of Educational Psychology, studies school psychology and counseling. We spoke with her for advice on how to speak with your children during a public crisis such as COVID-19.
