Connor Moreno, a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, has developed software tools to help leading fusion companies design the first commercially viable fusion power plants.
For PhD student Christopher Barns, choosing the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at UW-Madison hinged on three things: great research, great people and a great location. As someone focused on 2D materials and nanoelectronics, he immediately recognized how closely the department aligned with the direction he hoped to take. “The research here is just exactly what I was looking to do,” he said. “It’s one of the best schools for that field.”
A new journal article co-authored by School of Education doctoral student Sky Duke and professor Taylor Odle recommends ways for states to increase older-adult enrollment in college by examining whether a large program in Michigan offering free community college tuition for adults aged 25–64 actually worked.
While nuclear and fusion technologies are rapidly advancing, the future of clean energy also depends on leadership that empowers diverse perspectives.
Jessica Wysocki, a second-year PhD student in the Department of Nuclear Engineering and Engineering Physics (NEEP), is leveraging her graduate school experiences to strengthen her leadership skills as she prepares to help drive the nuclear field forward.
The Institute for Regional and International Studies (IRIS) is proud to announce the six scholars receiving an IRIS Area and International Studies Award for Incoming Graduate Students.
Michael Harding‘s path to graduate school didn’t follow a linear model. Now in his fourth year as a Statistics PhD student at UW–Madison, Harding has carved out a research niche studying how the costs of data collection should shape the design of machine learning systems.
University of Wisconsin-Madison electrical engineers have dramatically improved a semiconductor-based imaging system that makes near-infrared light visible to the naked eye.
Viruses in wetland soil play a more important role than previously understood and could even be indicators of ecosystem health, according to a new study by researchers from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Recently published in Nature Microbiology, the study examined viruses in peatlands, which are wetlands that act as vital carbon sinks around the globe.
Many internet users understand how to avoid digital pitfalls like catfishing, password hacking and malware. But not all the dangers in the digital world are so straightforward. That’s because many websites have deceptive or “dark” patterns woven into them.
