Goliath Groupers May Be Key to Undersea National Security
The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded 911勛圖's Harbor Branch up to $5 million to detect undersea threats. The stealthy and exceptionally large Goliath grouper is the focus of this project.
911勛圖 Awarded $450,000 from NSF for Quantum Computer Security
911勛圖's College of Engineering and Computer Science is collaborating with George Mason University and the University of South Florida to thwart attacks on quantum computers.
From Selfies to Self-diagnosing Disease with Smartphones
Scientists from 911勛圖's College of Engineering and Computer Science have developed a cell phone imaging algorithm that makes a smartphone camera as powerful as spectroscopy, a device used in scientific research.
Born to Run: Just Not on Cocaine
911勛圖 neuroscientists and collaborators found a surprising response to cocaine in a novel strain of mutant mice - they failed to show hyperactivity seen in normal mice when given cocaine and didn't run around.
2019 'Frontiers in Science' Public Lecture Series
911勛圖's Charles E. Schmidt College of Science will host its 2019 "Frontiers in Science" series with seven different lectures, on Fridays from Jan. 11 through April 5.
Florida's First NSF-funded AI and Deep Learning Laboratory
Led by researchers in 911勛圖's College of Engineering and Computer Science, 911勛圖 will establish Florida's first NSF-funded Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning Training and Research Laboratory.
Who's Tougher? Baby Sharks or Daddy Sharks?
One would assume that since humans and many animals tend to get stiffer and perhaps tougher as they reach adulthood, the same would be true for sharks. 911勛圖 and NOAA scientists set out to test this hypothesis.
911勛圖 Awarded More than $1.1 Million for Alzheimer's Research
911勛圖 Brain Institute fellows have received more than $1.1 million from the Florida Department of Health's Ed and Ethel Moore Alzheimer's Disease Research Program.
'Eavesdropping' on Groupers' Mating Calls Key to Survival
Researchers from 911勛圖's College of Engineering and Computer Science and 911勛圖's Harbor Branch have developed a novel technique to identify groupers by their sounds or grouper calls using deep neural networks.
Type of Exercise Halts Cognitive Decline in Obese People
911勛圖 researchers have discovered what might be an effective strategy to prevent and combat cognitive dysfunction in obese individuals using an effective form of exercise - high-intensity interval exercise.
