Open YouTube on your nearest internet-connected device and performing a quick search for “ASMR” will yield hundreds of thousands of results. You’ll find everything from close-up gum chewing to hair brushing to shoe store roleplays – and what started as a cult phenomenon in the far corners of “weird YouTube” has become wildly mainstream.
C. Brian Rose, a Professor of Mediterranean Archaeology at the University of Pennsylvania, focuses his studies on ancient cities and architecture of the Roman Empire. While the life of an archaeologist may not be exactly like what’s shown in the movies, his work results in tangible discoveries of ancient civilizations that help us understand the societies that came before us.
One of the most prevalent particles in the universe is also one of the most difficult to detect. Neutrinos can travel billions of light years — or even from the beginning of time itself — unimpeded by any of the matter they come into contact with. Their near masslessness and neutral charge make neutrinos almost ghostlike in that they are unaffected by both physical barriers as well as magnetic fields. This makes detecting the phantom particles all the more challenging.
Autos is a bi-weekly column written by the Science editor.
Held in the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery (WID), the three panelists, Laura Helmuth, Alta Charo and Jo Handelsman, discussed how the increase of fake news stories has impacted the world of science journalism in the digital age.
Earlier this month, two UW-Madison graduates, Lisa Parks and Rebecca Sandefur, were awarded the prestigious MacArthur “Genius Grant” Fellowship for 2018. The MacArthur Fellowship is awarded every year to individuals with great potential, dedication and creativity in the hopes they will use the $625,000 grant to further their original and innovative pursuits. For both Parks and Sandefur, the fellowship is an exciting and unique opportunity to develop and expand their research interests and projects.
For a change of pace after a whirlwind week of lectures and events on campus, Dan Egan, author of UW-Madison’s 2018-’19 Go Big Read book, spoke to laid back audience at an East Side bar Wednesday night, part of the university’s Science on Tap series.
Crowds of all ages attended the annual Wisconsin Science Festival at the Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery (WID) building this weekend.
This is a part of the science desk's Autos series, which will run every other week.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison has long been established as a Midwestern mecca of research and creative work, with a myriad of research centers and offices in a multitude of fields. Dozens of professors and graduate students decide to come to UW-Madison to take part in this great endeavor, but there’s another facet to the research generated by the university.
A scientific paper detailing detection methods of dark matter and words like electrons, neutrinos and muons thrown about—these are things expected in a physics lecture or in the office of a physics professor at UW-Madison, but perhaps not at all expected in a local Madison art gallery. However, thanks to a collaboration between the Wisconsin IceCube Particle Astrophysics Center (WIPAC), the Arts+Literature Laboratory (ALL) and local artists, writers and high school students, UW-Madison IceCube physics research has been transformed with art, poetry, film and music to create the LAB3 project—a multidisciplinary effort that produced a gallery of artwork transporting visitors to galaxies far, far away and to emotions close and near to the human heart.
The University of Wisconsin–Madison announced a new partnership establishing the Forward BIO Initiative on Thursday, thanks to a $750,000 grant from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation.
A UW-Madison student voiced concerns of a culturally insensitive class syllabus in a Facebook post Wednesday.
The University of Wisconsin–Madison announced on Friday a new research collaboration with Foxconn Technology Group worth $100 million dollars. The partnership, which still requires a passing vote by the Board of Regents, has Foxconn investing in the university to develop a science and technology institute that will work closely with the company’s planned manufacturing facilities in southeast Wisconsin.
Following the success of Tesla Inc., automakers like Volvo, BMW, and Ford are investing heavily in electric-car technology.
Ryan Castle, a 21-year-old junior studying electrical engineering, doesn’t live a typical college lifestyle. While many students’ typical day includes three to four lectures, some study time in the evening, and some Netflix to finish the night, Ryan spends over one hundred hours a week split between two things – his engineering co-op and the Badgerloop team.
In a reveal event last Thursday, the UW-Madison Badgerloop team unveiled their new hyperloop pod and discussed their hopes for the 2018 SpaceX Hyperloop competition happening this summer.

Radar maps are a key feature in the weather forecast industry, used for displaying weather data in specific regions, utilizing color and symbols to do so. At the UW-Madison School of Pharmacy, they are repurposing the elegant concept of the weather map to soon provide vital information for healthcare providers.
