Caden Fischer, of Menno, is in his first year of graduate school, pursuing a master’s degree in mathematics. After his junior year, he participated in Research Experience for Undergraduates at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ. That lead to him becoming a Future Innovator of America during his senior year. That lead to a summer fellowship at Los Alamos National Laboratory this past summer.

ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's Solaiman Tarafder is developing a new bioadhesive that not only holds tissue together, but also actively encourages stronger, faster healing.

ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's Ananda Nanjundaswamy is developing a natural and safe alternative to synthetic food dyes.  

A new grant from the National Science Foundation will allow a collaborative group of researchers — led by ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ associate professor Nicholas Butzin — to study and identify molecules that can neutralize harmful microbes.

ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ assistant professor Phuong Nguyen will leverage artificial intelligence to streamline the project delivery process together with permitting, mitigation and compliance systems for South Carolina's Department of Transportation.

On there outside, Future Innovator of America Samara Overvaag looks like the typical 21-year-old SDSU student. But when she starts describing her research project that involves negative kinetic energy and ghost systems, one realizes she is quite unique.

Renaissance man could well describe William Karels. So could groundbreaker. At the close of the past school year, the mechanical engineering senior learned he would receive the Duane Hanson Scholarship, becoming the first ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ student to receive the $5,000 award from the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers. He also is only the second SDSU student to receive a scholarship from the international society of more than 50,000 heating, refrigerating and air-conditioning professionals. For the 2013-14 school year, Mitchell Hoesing received a $5,000 general award from the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers.

Undergraduate research opportunities in ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's College of Nursing are expanding.

ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ researchers have revealed how satellite data can provide key insights into plant growth cycles in the Western U.S.

A new study from ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ will investigate the age, growth, maturity and movement of Big Stone Lake's resurgent lake sturgeon population.
