Professors Emma Alexander, Manling Li, Han Liu, Marcelo Worsley, and their students represented Northwestern CS at CVPR 2026 ...

Certain cancer-driving proteins resist nearly all existing treatments, making many aggressive cancers effectively untreatable. Researchers devised a strategy to use protein-like polymers called ...

Barkot Simegn, a third-year mechanical engineering student, has become the first Northwestern student to receive a Patti Grace Smith Fellowship. The fellowship program connects students and faculty ...

A multi-institution team led by Northwestern Engineering’s Canyu Chen earned a Best Paper Award at the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) 2026 Workshop on Trust and ...

The prize honors an individual who has demonstrated sustained efforts in advancing either theoretical or practical aspects of computational mechanics.

Engineers have long assumed that heating metals always softens them, but how metals behave at extreme deformation rates remained unclear. This counterintuitive finding reframes purity as a design ...

At the Jan. 16 symposium “Advancing the Science of Engagement in Digital Safety Research,” the Northwestern University Center for Human-Computer Interaction + Design (HCI+D)—a collaboration between ...

Northwestern Engineering’s Sidhanth Mohanty earned a Best Paper Award at the 66th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (FOCS 2025) last month in Sydney. Mohanty joined the McCormick ...

Therapeutic cancer vaccines often fail to generate strong enough immune responses, in part because traditional “blender-style” formulations ignore how the structural arrangement of components ...

Many direct air capture systems rely on heat and oxygen-sensitive materials, which can make them energy-intensive, less efficient, and less durable in real-world air conditions. Researchers devised an ...

MGLC caters to Masters' and PhD students across all McCormick departments. We augment the analytical core of engineering with design, entrepreneurship, leadership, personal development, and unusual ...
