The University of Maryland, Baltimore County (often referred to as UMBC) is an American public research university, located in Baltimore County, Maryland, United States, mostly in the community of Catonsville.
A new method to address deep-seated biases in science
New UMBC research is helping dismantle gender and publication biases in science. A team of researchers working across disciplines has developed a new statistical technique to understand similarity, rather than difference, in the natural world. With this new technique, they’ve determined that among Eastern Bluebirds the structure of songs female birds sing is statistically indistinguishable
Artificial intelligence used to gain powerful insights into the biophysics of cancer
Machine-learning predicts never-before-seen cancer-like phenotype Scientists from Tufts University’s School of Arts and Sciences, the Allen Discovery Center at Tufts, and the University of Maryland, Baltimore County have used artificial intelligence to gain insight into the biophysics of cancer. Their machine-learning platform predicted a trio of reagents that was able to generate a never-before-seen cancer-like
‘Squid skin’ metamaterials project yields vivid color display
The quest to create artificial “squid skin” — camouflaging metamaterials that can “see” colors and automatically blend into the background — is one step closer to reality, thanks to a breakthrough color-display technology unveiled this week by Rice University’s Laboratory for Nanophotonics (LANP). The new full-color display technology uses aluminum nanoparticles to create the vivid
New Low-Cost, Nondestructive Technology Cuts Risk from Mercury Hot Spots
Hot spots of mercury pollution in aquatic sediments and soils can contaminate local food webs and threaten ecosystems, but cleaning them up can be expensive and destructive. Researchers from the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center and the University of Maryland Baltimore County have found a new low-cost, nonhazardous way to reduce the risk of exposure: using
University of Maryland Pharmacy Researchers Develop Promising Chronic Pain Drug
UMB 425 is being called a breakthrough in the development of therapeutics to treat chronic pain, acts on two different opioid receptors with diminished tolerance over time and no obvious toxic effects. A team of researchers led by Andrew Coop, PhD, professor and chair of the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences (PSC) at the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy (UMSOP),
Electromagnetic space propulsion
Electromagnetic propulsion could exponentially expand satellite capabilities by providing a propellant-less formation flight technology New electromagnetic propulsion technology being tested by the University of Maryland‘s Space Power and Propulsion Laboratory (SPPL) on the International Space Station could revolutionize the capabilities of satellites and future spacecraft by reducing reliance on propellants and extending the lifecycle of
