Mapping a large coastal glacier in Alaska revealed that its bulk sits below sea level and is undercut by channels, making it vulnerable to accelerated melting in an already deteriorating coastal habitat.

When engineers 3D-print metal objects, they use metals originally developed for conventional manufacturing. It works, but not as well as it could. Two UArizona experts are using a new suite of equipment to develop alloys optimized for both 3D printing and hypersonic flight.

Archaeologist Terry Hunt, a leading expert on the island natively known as Rapa Nui, arrived a day after islanders discovered a previously unknown statue. It's the latest chapter in the island's long story of sustainability against the odds.

The university's Center for Innovation – a business incubator network that empowers science and technology startups to bring their ideas to market – had an economic output of $35.3 million in 2021, according to a new analysis.

Dozens of presentations from UArizona experts, a film festival and more are on tap at this year's Wonder House as the university returns to South by Southwest.

Women are as competitive as men, just motivated differently, says the director of the Center for the Philosophy of Freedom, who will discuss her work at the UArizona Wonder House at South by Southwest.

CatSat is a small satellite carrying a new communications concept – an inflatable antenna – into space. Led by UArizona students and supported by engineers from local aerospace companies, the project offers students a rare chance to get hands-on experience with spaceflight technology.

Future space missions likely will send robots to scout out underground habitats for astronauts. UArizona engineers have developed a system that would allow autonomous vehicles to explore caves, lava tubes and even oceans on other worlds.

The France-Arizona Institute promotes collaboration through its Graduate Research Fellowship & International Mobility Award. Each year, the institute funds research projects in which two teams—one from CNRS and the other from the University of Arizona—work together for three years to address a grand challenge. The most recent call for proposals emphasized projects related to environmental resilience, climate change, and health. After reviewing many excellent submissions, the FA Institute selected five recipients.
