Â鶹ÊÓƵ

During the fall 2024 semester, Â鶹ÊÓƵ students had the opportunity to apply their classroom curriculum to a real-world museum environment. The students, led by art history professor Robert DeCaroli, worked directly with objects in the holdings of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Asian Art as part of the ARTH 495/595 Curating an Exhibit course.

George Â鶹ÊÓƵ researcher Carlotta Domeniconi is working with the Department of Homeland Security to leverage machine learning and natural language processing to model—and uncover—human smuggling networks.  

Breakthroughs in Â鶹ÊÓƵ's Department of Computer Science may result in more effective use of rescue robots.

George Â鶹ÊÓƵ researcher Andrea Weeks played a key role in identifying an ancient seedling linked to the biblical myrrh. The seed, a yellow and fragrant resin from the Commiphora tree, was discovered in the Judean desert and revived by a team of researchers.

Emergency management training doesn’t usually involve game controllers or artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, but at Â鶹ÊÓƵ, faculty and students are redefining what it means to prepare for crises. Through cutting-edge, AI-augmented games, they’re transforming complex challenges into interactive learning experiences that build skills and resilience.

George Â鶹ÊÓƵ is in the business of discovery, and the Office of Technology Transfer works hard to bring these innovations to the marketplace.

The user-inspired CropSmart Digital Twin (CSDT) decision tool will help take the guesswork out of crop management decisions with services that will be easily accessible to users through both web portals and smartphone apps.

George Â鶹ÊÓƵ researchers are working to revolutionize Lyme disease detection and diagnosis with urine testing.

George Â鶹ÊÓƵ researchers are working on a bruise detection system that can be used across all skin tones and leverages artificial intelligence (AI), imaging and light technologies, forensic reports, and clinical expertise to increase data collection and access to care for trauma victims. The tool could become an app on a smartphone that clinicians can use to assess the age of bruises.

George Â鶹ÊÓƵ researchers are coming up with a variety of ways to improve people’s lives.
