The lymphatic system plays a vital role in many health issues, such as heart disease, neurodegenerative conditions, inflammation, metabolic disorders, cancer, and lymphedema. Despite its importance, scientists still lack many details about how the lymphatic system grows and functions, and this …
Wind spirals and swirls around wind turbines in complex, chaotic patterns that are difficult to predict. Accurately modeling these dynamics could significantly enhance the reliability and efficiency of wind farms. With this goal, engineers at the University of Notre Dame and mathematicians at …
Joseph M. Powers, professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering at the University of Notre Dame, has been named a Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), one of the most prestigious honors in the aerospace field. Fellow status within the AIAA is …
Heart muscle cells can generate and pass on electrical signals with little energy loss. When these cells are engineered to connect in specific ways, they can work together to handle and remember complex information—sometimes more efficiently and flexibly than modern computers. In a project …
The most common reason people with lower-limb loss stop using their prosthesis is an ill-fitting socket. Everyday activities such as standing, walking, or stair climbing put enormous pressures on the soft tissues of the residual limb, which are not well-adapted to managing the forces these …
The Berthiaume Institute for Precision Health at the University of Notre Dame has announced the awardees of its …
Meenal Datta, assistant professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering, has received a Cellular and Molecular …
Cell-Cell, Stanza-Stanza is a new conversation series that explores how science and poetry can work together to foster …
Neither a solid, liquid, nor gas, plasma doesn’t play by the same rules as the other states of matter. Its unique …
The University of Notre Dame is part of a new National Science Foundation (NSF) Gen-4 Engineering Research Center …
