A once hidden disability is brought to light by Drs Bennet and Sally Shaywitz of the Yale Center for Dyslexia & Creativity. Their research connects IQ, reading level, and cognition in dyslexic and typical students, while looking ahead to broadly applied standardized testing and teaching methods.
Yale researchers have created an operating system (OS) called Determinator that can strictly enforce deterministic behavior in parallel computations. Their research may help eliminate the time-dependent bugs and security issues that plague otherwise promising parallel computer systems.
Angle. Slant. Spin. Whether we are explaining to a professor why we were late to class or telling our friend why our boyfriend broke up
Professor Joshua Knobe studies intentionality and morality, and his findings reveal that the way we view the world is constantly colored by moral conceptions.
Professor Ronald Duman’s research into depression has both clarified parts of existing antidepressant pathways and discovered an entirely new one involving ketamine.
In the mid-20th century, José Delgado performed stunning experiments using electrical brain stimulation. Today, Delgado’s legacy is evident in the many medical devices that rely on interactions with the brain.
David Spiegel, Assistant Professor of Chemistry at Yale University, has devoted his research to the synthesis of complex molecules capable of manipulating immunological functions to treat disease.
In Professor Mark Reed’s lab at Yale, the focus within the last decade has been to size biosensing devices down to the nanoscale, thus aptly giving them name “nanosensors.”
Yale Professor of Anthropology Rod McIntosh and his team have recently uncovered one of the oldest urban civilizations, the Ancient Middle Niger, which dominated a region more than five times the area of ancient Egypt and three times the area of Mesopotamia.
Members of Professor Eric Dufresne’s laboratory are studying the mechanical forces generated by crawling cells and have related these forces to those generated when paint dries, helping to build a greater understanding of the dynamics of soft materials.
The Ubiquity of Science “Scientific thought is the common heritage of mankind.”- Abdus Salam I have been pursuing science since my chemistry class sophomore year
In spite of gravity’s attractive force, the universe expands at an accelerating rate.
Yale Professor of Cosmology, Dr. Priyamvada Natarajan, studies dark energy, the
fluid responsible for the negative pressure in the universe.
