An in-depth look into the deep history of how animals evolved their dietary preferences over the last 800 million years led UA researchers to some unexpected discoveries.
The University of Arizona is joining Duke University, Harvard University and the University of San Diego to help meet the needs of human trafficking survivors. The UA’s Innovation for Justice Program, which aims to tackle social justice challenges, will play a key role in the effort.
The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft has mapped Bennu to identify the best spots for the spacecraft to collect a sample. The final two sites – a primary and backup – will be selected in December.
By creating millions of virtual universes and comparing them to observations of actual galaxies, a UA-led team present a powerful new approach for studying galaxy formation.
UA researchers have designed a telescope that is a cheaper, lighter and more powerful option than creating telescopes using ever-larger mirrors.
Engineering principles developed only 150 years ago were found to have evolved first in biological circuitry that controls cell growth, according to new UA research.
Two UA astronomers received Early Career Research Awards from the Department of Energy to to investigate the nature of the expanding universe and other dark mysteries.
Low vision can have an immense impact on quality of life for individuals who are legally blind or have impaired eyesight. Thanks to technology developed in the Wyant College of Optical Sciences, a system from eSight Corporation is allowing people to see.
Tucson has enjoyed a 90% jump in technology jobs over the last five years, making it one of the top up-and-coming tech markets in North America, according to CBRE.
Temperature data from the Pliocene, an era with CO2 levels similar to today's, could be used to understand the climate shifts of the near future, according to UA geoscientist.
UA Ph.D. student Ivan Mauricio Vela-Vargas led an effort to collar an Andean bear nicknamed Xué. The bear's movements will help scientists learn more about the vulnerable species.
Using phoropter technology developed at the UA James C. Wyant College of Optical Sciences, startup iCrx aims to shorten and ease visits to the eye doctor.
Humans first explored the Earth’s moon 50 years ago, an impressive feat for sure. But what would it be like to visit some of the other moons in our solar system?
