The initiative addresses the critical need for a testbed capable of supporting experimental wireless research that transcends theoretical bounds.

UAlbany Secures $1.3M NSF Grant to Develop Cutting-Edge Wireless Testbed The University at Albany has secured a groundbreaking $1.3 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to develop an advanced wireless testbed designed to revolutionize research into the

“This aims to help CDTA identify specific shelters that require cleanup and create more efficient routes for staff,” said Kelvin Cai, one of our computer science students.

CTG UAlbany, CDTA Explore AI Tools for Bus Shelter Maintenance Researchers and students at CTG UAlbany are helping CDTA address that challenge using mobile sensors and artificial intelligence. Through an ongoing partnership, CTG UAlbany has adapted its Community Asset Tracker platform to identify maintenance conditions at bus shelters using AI-enabled camera se...

This enables researchers to develop next-gen tech for wireless communications, imaging technologies and radar and sensing systems.

UAlbany Receives $1.3M NSF Award to Establish Advanced Wireless Testbed The University at Albany has received a $1.3 million award from the National Science Foundation to establish an advanced wireless testbed for cutting-edge research aimed at improving use of the electromagnetic spectrum, a vital national resource that is becoming increasingly crowded.

A project led by our postdoctoral researcher Omid Rajabi Shishvan earned the top prize for its bedside monitoring technology that functions in high-acuity clinical settings.

RISE Program Helps UAlbany Innovators Turn Ideas Into Impact In just over a year, four groups of UAlbany researchers, students and Capital Region startups have moved through the Research & Innovators Startup Exchange (RISE), exploring what it takes to bring ideas beyond the lab and into the marketplace.

It's designed for college students, recent grads and anyone pursuing a career in energy storage, batteries and clean energy.

CNSE Hosts Hands-On Energy Storage Training The College of Nanotechnology, Science, and Engineering at UAlbany hosted a free, two-week, hands-on training program from May 11-22 for college students, recent graduates and individuals seeking careers in energy storage, batteries and clean energy.

“My most meaningful growth came from hands-on projects, leadership experiences, mentoring peers and collaborating with faculty and industry professionals,” said Sanad Sahawneh.

UAlbany Electrical & Computer Engineering Grad to Develop Hardware at IBM Sanad Sahawneh is grateful that he pushed beyond expectations with the help of mentors like Associate Professor Hany Egala.

“I wanted to apply what I had learned in class to a real-world project,” said Weiming Lan, one of our computer science students. “At the same time, this project gave me a special opportunity to learn more about local history and community culture.”

Connecting Visitors with History at Albany Rural Cemetery At Albany Rural Cemetery, where nearly two centuries of history stretch across 467 acres, two University at Albany students are putting interdisciplinary training into practice — developing mapping tools that help visitors navigate the past.

“The idea that you could be doing your PhD research a few steps away from real fab tools and industry partners was exactly the kind of place I wanted to be,” said Soumya Kollipara, who studied nanoscale engineering.

Grads at a Glance: Passion for Tiny Materials Leaves Big Impact Soumya Kollipara will graduate this summer from UAlbany’s College of Nanotechnology, Science, and Engineering with a PhD in Nanoscale Engineering — a journey that began six years ago when she left her hometown of Hyderabad, India with a master’s degree in nanotechnology, drawn by UAlbany’s g...

“We’re always thinking about new diseases or new applications that we can build new products for,” said Scott Tenenbaum of our Dept. of Nanoscale Science & Engineering.
