Sharing the lessons learned during the 2013 Colorado flood
What can a historian do in response to life-threatening flooding like we’ve seen in Northern Colorado? Quite a lot it turns out. By documenting the communication, cooperation, and activity of disaster responders, historians capture the knowledge and information-sharing process that is so crucial to future response and recovery.
The Meaning of Water: Identity, place, and purpose
Water lies at the heart of what it means to be human and what it means to flourish in our own place in the world. From a philosophical and ethical perspective, our particular understandings and interpretations of water reveal our sense of identity (the who), our sense of place (the where), and our meaning and purpose in the world (the why).
Recyclable plastic innovation named ‘Research of the Year 2018’
An infinitely recyclable polymer with the mechanical strength and thermal stability of common plastics is included in “Research of the Year” by Chemical and Engineering News.
Students learn from the pros during Argentina storm-sampling campaign
Sixteen graduate students across the U.S. participated in an intensive scientific field campaign as part of an Advanced Study Institute in atmospheric science.
Potato pathogens meet their match through $8 million multistate research initiative
CSU researchers will continue exploring best practices for strong, disease-resistant potato crops in Colorado and beyond.
Don’t add salt: Researchers seek origin of salinity leading to crop yield reduction

TCTMD: Veterinarian-Cardiologist Teamwork Could Speed Device Innovation, Training
Brian Scansen, DVM, is an associate professor of cardiology and the section head of cardiology and cardiac surgery at the Colorado State University James L. Voss Veterinary Teaching Hospital. For more than a decade, he’s been forging ties with human cardiologists to build what he believes could be a fruitful collaboration for both specialties. [TCTMD (Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics) is produced by the Cardiovascular Research Foundation.]
The Demand for Water: Policy reform and new technologies offer solutions
Renowned CSU economist Edward Barbier has a few ideas about the world’s increasingly serious water crisis. He says we have mismanaged our freshwater supplies by not charging enough for the natural resource and by sticking to an antiquated system of determining water rights. By looking at governance, policy reform, and new technologies we could protect our freshwater ecosystems and secure sufficient water for our world’s growing population.
Recyclable plastic innovation named ‘Research of the Year 2018’
Eugene Chen's lab develops new materials and methods for waste-free, sustainable polymers.
