An international research team that includes Husker physicists Ken Bloom, Daniel Claes and Ilya Kravchenko recently received the 2025 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics.

An international team of agronomists is calling for a new approach to estimate crop yield potential and gaps — information that is critical in planning how to meet growing food demand. 

University of Nebraska–Lincoln researchers made major contributions to the study, published online April 8 in the journal Nature Food.

A new research initiative at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln is turning precision farming techniques into predictive farming techniques. With support from the United States Department of Agriculture, Qiang Liu, assistant professor in the School of Computing, will collaborate on an interdisciplinary project with Hongzhi Guo, assistant professor in computing; Yufeng Ge, professor in biological systems […]

Mason Hardin, a senior chemistry major from Sioux City, Iowa, incorporated many of his interests into a unique senior honors thesis presentation.

Hardin has been working for almost three years on research on protecting cattle from blood-feeding insects in the lab or Georgina Bingham, research associate professor of entomology. When it came time to share the work, Harding collaborated with the Hixson-Lied College of Fine and Performing Arts to integrate music and dance into his method of communicating the science.

Every year, more than 795,000 American adults suffer a stroke, and one in four adults worldwide will suffer a stroke in their lifetime. Early action can reduce rates of death and disability. 

Now, a group of Husker researchers, led by Steven Barlow, has patented a groundbreaking frontline treatment — the pTACS Somatosensory Biomedical Device — for cerebrovascular accidents that is portable, making it a versatile product for use in rehabilitation clinics, emergency rooms and, potentially, transport ambulances.

The National Strategic Research Institute at the University of Nebraska has welcomed 40 faculty members into its collaborative research network, the NSRI Fellows Program, to further expand its transdisciplinary research capabilities.
