Radio-tracking Dolphins Reveals Details About Their Behavior
The most extensive radio-tracking effort of Indian River Lagoon bottlenose dolphins, reveals new information about how they use their habitats, spend their time, and interact with their own species.
Goliath Groupers May Be Key to Undersea National Security
The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded FAU's Harbor Branch up to $5 million to detect undersea threats. The stealthy and exceptionally large Goliath grouper is the focus of this project.
FAU Awarded $450,000 from NSF for Quantum Computer Security
FAU's College of Engineering and Computer Science is collaborating with George Mason University and the University of South Florida to thwart attacks on quantum computers.
From Selfies to Self-diagnosing Disease with Smartphones
Scientists from FAU's College of Engineering and Computer Science have developed a cell phone imaging algorithm that makes a smartphone camera as powerful as spectroscopy, a device used in scientific research.
Born to Run: Just Not on Cocaine
FAU neuroscientists and collaborators found a surprising response to cocaine in a novel strain of mutant mice - they failed to show hyperactivity seen in normal mice when given cocaine and didn't run around.
2019 'Frontiers in Science' Public Lecture Series
FAU's Charles E. Schmidt College of Science will host its 2019 "Frontiers in Science" series with seven different lectures, on Fridays from Jan. 11 through April 5.
Florida's First NSF-funded AI and Deep Learning Laboratory
Led by researchers in FAU's College of Engineering and Computer Science, FAU will establish Florida's first NSF-funded Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning Training and Research Laboratory.
Who's Tougher? Baby Sharks or Daddy Sharks?
One would assume that since humans and many animals tend to get stiffer and perhaps tougher as they reach adulthood, the same would be true for sharks. FAU and NOAA scientists set out to test this hypothesis.
