Read more Image UArizona reports record number of inventions Aug. 2, 2022 Tech Launch Arizona, the university's commercialization arm, recorded 303 novel inventions between July 1, 2021, and June 30 – the most invention disclosures registered for a single year in UArizona history. Read more Image Following nature's rules, researchers develop new methods for treating degenerative neurological disease July 26, 2022 Researchers have developed a new class of drugs that is able to cross the blood-brain barrier. The technology has been licensed to the startup Teleport Pharmaceuticals.

Read more Image Webb Telescope's stunning first images made possible by UArizona instruments and expertise July 12, 2022 After decades of development, a nail-biting launch and months of space travel and commissioning, NASA has released the first images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope. The images hint at the beginning of years of space science, made possible in part by the 21 UArizona researchers who have played a role in developing and managing Webb's onboard instruments. Read more Image OSIRIS-REx scientists: Taking asteroid sample was like punching a ball pit July 7, 2022 Before-and-after data from the few seconds it took the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft to collect a sample from asteroid Bennu revealed a surprise: The particles of Bennu's exterior are so loosely packed, they act more like a fluid than a solid. Read more Image Counting krypton: Water miles below Earth's surface isn't as old as scientists once thought July 6, 2022 As the Colorado River carved the Grand Canyon, it flushed away ancient groundwater. The discovery was made using a new method that determines the age of water based on how much of the radioactive element krypton-81 is present. Read more Image New research could explain unknown causes of epilepsy July 6, 2022 In many cases of epilepsy – which disrupts electrical activity in the brain and often results in seizures – the underlying cause is unknown. UArizona researchers may have found an explanation for some forms of epilepsy.
