UIC Research

UIC is Chicago’s public research university. Pursuing answers. Shaping the future. Improving communities. #UICResearchMatters #ResearchMatters @thisisUIC @UICnews @UIC_OVCR

A new drug from @thisisUIC will proceed to clinical trials this summer: biologic eyedrops to treat dry eye disease. 👁️💧 Development of the eyedrops started in UIC’s Dry Eye and Ocular GVHD Clinic, which Dr. Sandeep Jain directs in @uiccom. 📰today.uic.edu/uics-new-dry-e…

Congrats to professor Pamela Martyn-Nemeth, who was among only 15 nurse scientists from around the world inducted into the the @SigmaNursing International Nurse Researcher Hall of Fame last weekend! Read more: loom.ly/kb2mE34

Our new Spatial and Genome Technologies Core has officially launched! The new core will work with other cores in the RRC to provide researchers with support throughout their projects. #research #spatialanalysis #singlecell #UICResearchMatters #UICResearch shorturl.at/lCe4H

Cancer Center members and other @thisisUIC researchers are co-authors of work featured in the journal @NatureComms. The researchers designed a top-of-the-line relay process in the body’s immune system to challenge cancer. Read the full story here: bit.ly/4mWJbVh

Join us for a virtual, two-day workshop designed to increase research coordinators’ knowledge about community partnerships in research: ccts.uic.edu/events/mc-comm…. The Master Class series is part of the CCTS's RC+ Certificate Program ccts.uic.edu/training/rc_ce…… @UIC_OVCR #UICScience

Last week @thisisUIC announced winners of the UIC Research and Scholarship Annual Awards presented by @UIC_OVCR, which honor exceptional members of our research ecosystem. We're proud to share that 4 COM researchers were named awardees! This week, we'll be celebrating their work.

This week we celebrated the newly renovated UIC Center for Structural Biology, which will house four of our UIC Research Resource Center Core Facilities. The space will serve as a hub for #research discovery. #UICResearch #UICResearchMatters Photos by Hilary Domke

So thankful! My image captures brain cells from the hippocampus, expanded nearly four times. I used fluorescent labeling to capture this moment of cosmic beauty within the brain. @UICnews @UIC_BioS @UIC_OVCR @UICGrad

A team of MIE students recently built and conducted a drop test for a celestial landing device in #UIC’s High Bay Structures Laboratory, a part of their capstone project sponsored by #NASA. #Chicago #Engineering #SpaceExploration @UICEngineering @UIC_OVCR mie.uic.edu/news-stories/n…

Three UIC faculty members and two faculty members from the @UofT are combining large-scale data models with travelers’ decision-making science to shape transportation policies. @UofILSystem research.uic.edu/news-stories/c… #UICResearch #research #transportation

“This research focuses on understanding how droplets interact with different surfaces, including smooth and rough ones, by using advanced computer simulations,” said Associate Professor Parisa Mirbod. mie.uic.edu/news-stories/u…

UIC researchers discovered that one class of nanoscale materials shows a rippling behavior similar to what we see when we shuffle cards or leaf through a book. That rippling action could help in the design of new technologies. today.uic.edu/nanoscale-mate… @argonne @UChicago #research

A new study in @Nature co-authored by UIC researchers found that lariocidin, a peptide made by bacteria living in soil, was effective against several different microbes responsible for deadly infections. today.uic.edu/lasso-shaped-a… @McMasterU
