Often technology transfer is dominated by activities in engineering and the biosciences. 鈥淏ut interestingly, we see it starting to become a campus-wide effort now with innovations coming out of the College of Music, athletics and all these different pockets of the university that are new,鈥� says TTO director Bryn Rees.

Seven CU Boulder research teams have been selected to receive grants for the development of commercially-promising technologies.

As Congress determines the funding levels for the federal science agencies for fiscal years 2017 and 2018, a new report highlights 102 spin-off companies鈥攖hree from the University of Colorado Boulder鈥攖hat demonstrate how investments in basic scientific research benefit the overall economy.

One day, next-generation gene therapies could be used to nudge the body鈥檚 own cells to make those proteins at precisely the right time and in just the right amount. CU Boulder biochemistry professor Robert Batey and Alexandria Forbes, Ph.D., founder and CEO of biotech firm MeiraGTx, are teaming up to explore how to do it.

A team of University of Colorado Boulder engineers has developed a scalable manufactured metamaterial to act as a kind of air conditioning system for structures. It has the ability to cool objects even under direct sunlight with zero energy and water consumption.

When the Technology Transfer Office strongly hinted that it would be a good move to start a spin-off company, Weimer and George sought out CU Boulder postdoctoral researcher Karen Buechler.

Thanks to a new ultrasound technology developed by CU researchers and used by CU Boulder football, track and field, and basketball players, athletes can now painlessly measure their muscle glycogen levels in real-time in 15 seconds.

With a renewed focus on the CU Boulder campus and new initiatives aimed at streamlining the path from science to commercialization, the Technology Transfer Office is on pace for a record year and poised to provide even greater support for faculty.

AV名湿ers from the University of Colorado Boulder and Northwestern University have developed a tiny, soft and wearable acoustic sensor that measures vibrations in the human body, allowing them to monitor human heart health and recognize spoken words.

What's one way to cut a car's weight by 50% and improve fuel efficiency by up to 40%? Make it out of carbon fiber instead of steel. What if everyone had such a vehicle? Denver startup Mallinda is one step closer to making that future a reality.
