ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ associate professor Rachel Willand-Charnley received an endowment from Bill and Nancy Wadsworth earlier this year. The funding will help Willand-Charnley accelerate cancer research at SDState.

Researchers from ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's Department of Biology and Microbiology and the BioSystems Networks and Transformative Research Center – Insights into Inflammation (BioSNTR-II) have identified a protein — ALIX — that can help boost cells' self-healing abilities.

ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ researcher Swas Kaushal is part of a new generation of scientists blending technology and agriculture — and his work is gaining global attention through two major travel awards.

For the fifth consecutive year, Yucheng Liu, head of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ, has been named to the Stanford University-Elsevier World’s Top 2% Scientists’ list. The compilation is based on the number of times a scientist’s papers are cited in another scientist’s papers. Liu’s writings have been cited a total of 1,966 times with 377 of them occurring in 2024. Liu, the Duane Sander Endowed Professor, has served as department head since 2021 and is a Distinguished Member of the American Society for Engineering Education.

Turner Marr, a mechanical engineering senior from Buffalo, Minnesota, wanted to become a doctor when he enrolled at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ in fall 2022. That lasted all of one semester. The switch from biochemistry premed to mechanical engineering had nothing to do with the sight of blood or the thought of working on a cadaver. He simply wanted a major that required more math while allowing hands-on learning. He found that in mechanical engineering and in December 2024 was selected by the college as a Future Innovator of America.
