Researchers at the Institute of Optics for first time distill novel interferometry into a photonic device.

Medical Center researchers have found that mothers with both disease-acquired and mRNA vaccination-acquired immunity to COVID-19 produced breast milk with active SARS-CoV-2 antibodies.

Christina Muirhead, a computational biologist and population geneticist in the lab of Daven Presgraves, further proves genes develop weapons to combat ‘parasites’ that litter the human genome.

Rochester ophthalmology professor Juliette McGregor is leading a National Eye Institute–funded project to test therapies that regenerate the eye’s retina.

Chemical engineering doctoral candidate Heta Gandhi and her advisor, assistant professor Andrew White, have developed a new computer model showing ways to sell surplus energy from electric vehicles to local grids.

The University will serve as the lead study site in the US for an experimental treatment for CLN5 Batten disease, a rare and fatal neurodegenerative disorder.

University of Rochester biologist Anne S. Meyer and her colleagues are studying how engineered biofilms closely mimic natural ones. Their research may aid in developing drugs to fight the negative effects of these microorganisms that adhere to surfaces.

New research from Rochester scientist Lee Murray will aid in building more accurate computer models of the hydroxyl radical, an important ‘detergent of the atmosphere.’

Engineers have taken advantage of the quantum entanglement phenomenon to generate unprecedented bandwidth and brightness on chip-sized nanophotonic devices.

For nearly 60 years, the University’s Center for Visual Science has been transforming our understanding of vision and how we treat vision disorders.
