An aerospace engineering doctoral student has been awarded a NASA Space Technology Research Fellowship (NSTRF), to investigate and develop a miniature ion thruster for in-space propulsion.
The UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science welcomes nine new faculty members in 2017-18 to a roster that includes 35 affiliated members of the National Academy of Engineering and more than 60 winners of the NSF CAREER Award. The school now has 179 ladder faculty members, the most in its history.
Researchers at the UCLA School of Dentistry and UCLA Engineering found in a clinical trial that nanodiamonds protected disinfected root canals after the nerve and pulp were removed, thereby improving the likelihood of a full recovery. The findings are a milestone for the use of nanodiamonds in humans.
