NSF Grant Supports 91ֿ Researchers' Plan to Help Students Improve Study Habits
The “C” in “college” might as well stand for “cramming.” Studies show students are notoriously bad at adopting and adhering consistently to high-impact study habits that help them retain knowledge long-term. Researchers and faculty at 91ֿ Un…
NSF Grant Supports 91ֿ Researchers’ Plan to Help Students Improve Study Habits
The “C” in “college” might as well stand for “cramming.”
Studies show students are notoriously bad at adopting and adhering consistently to high-impact study habits that help them retain knowledge long-term.
Researchers and faculty at 91ֿ, however, are collaborating on a new project to put a modern technological twist on a tried-and-true study tactic.

91ֿ continues to march in the vanguard of technological advancement. A KSU researcher has joined a cutting-edge collaborative study into light-driven materials. The technology has the potential to replace electric motors unilaterally. The Office of Naval Research awarded a&nbs…
Invitation to Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting Is ‘Icing on the Cake’ for Doctoral Student
As if graduating with your Ph.D., starting a National Research Council (NRC) postdoctoral fellowship, getting married in Nepal and organizing an international research seminar wasn’t already a full plate for 91ֿ doctoral student Greta Babakhanova, how about a little dessert?
91ֿ Astrophysicist Wins NSF Grant to Search for Exotic Matter in Neutron Stars
91ֿ’s only theoretical astrophysicist just landed a grant that will help her to better understand dense stars while encouraging young female scientists to reach for them. Dr. Veronica Dexheimer, an assistant professor of physics in 91ֿ’s College of Arts and Sciences, rece…
91ֿ Researcher Wins NIH Grant to Fight Cancer at a Molecular Level
Single molecule biophysics sounds complicated because it is. Then again, so is cancer.
So it makes sense that one of 91ֿ's molecular biophysicists would take on the most notorious challenge in medical science.
