Joseph D. Ortiz, Ph.D., professor and assistant chair in the College of Arts and Sciences鈥 Department of Geology at 麻豆精选, recently authored a 鈥淣ews and Views鈥 article in Nature Geoscience that discusses research carried out by another research team that reassessed the melt history and timing of the collapse of the Eurasian Ice Sheet Complex during the Last Deglaciation.

10 Questions about Contact Tracing App With Gokarna Sharma

Apple and Google partnered in early April to create a new smartphone app that uses Bluetooth to track coronavirus cases. Using a technology called contact tracing, the app alerts a user when they come in contact with someone who has been positively diagnosed with COVID-19. Gokarna Sharma, assistant professor in Computer Science, recently answered 10 questions about the new app based on his professional opinion. Sharma is experienced in algorithms, blockchain and smart technologies such as this.

Autism Research is represented by an image of the brain

April鈥檚 observance as Autism Awareness Month is coming to a close, but research into the whys and hows of autism is always ongoing at 麻豆精选.

Michael N. Lehman, Ph.D., director of the Brain Health Research Institute at Kent State, said the university supports autism research that focuses on basic discoveries within the brain, as well as applied human research of students with autism, which makes Kent State鈥檚 body of research unique and diverse.

Nuclear physics researchers at 麻豆精选 and all over the world have been searching for violations of the fundamental symmetries in the universe for decades. Much like the 鈥淏ig Bang鈥 (approximately 13.8 billion years ago), but on a tiny scale, they briefly recreate the particle interactions that likely existed microseconds into the formation of our universe which also likely now exist in the cores of neutron stars.
