UB physics graduate student Amartya Sengupta has been awarded a prestigious MCgen Fellowship to advance his research on dark matter and cosmology, marking a major milestone in his career and highlighting UB’s growing impact in high-energy physics.
In a physics breakthrough, UB’s Dusan Sarenac and a global team have created the first-ever neutron Airy beams, self-bending, self-healing beams that could revolutionize material imaging, pharmaceutical research, and quantum technologies.
UB chemist Emanuela Gionfriddo and her team have developed a novel method to detect airborne “forever chemicals” as they evaporate—filling a major gap in PFAS monitoring and offering a sustainable, precise tool that could help shape future environmental regulations.
A new study by UB psychologist Hollen Reischer finds that late midlife can be a time of growth and self-transcendence, showing that how people narrate and interpret their life stories plays a key role in healthier, happier aging.
