For years, the semiconductor industry has been obsessed with packing more transistors into smaller spaces. As the AI boom drives demand for increasingly powerful processors, a less glamorous problem ...

For decades, monitoring cardiovascular health has required some combination of cuffs, sticky electrodes, wearable sensors, and frequent doctor visits. A new experimental system suggests the future of ...

Deep brain stimulation has transformed the treatment of certain neurological and psychiatric disorders. By delivering electrical pulses directly to specific brain circuits, implanted electrodes can ...

Quantifying muscle fatigue during exercise remains a persistent challenge across sports science and rehabilitation. Existing approaches often rely on subjective reporting or contact-based sensors.

On a stage designed to mimic Shark Tank, three engineering seniors stepped forward with a deceptively simple idea: what if your tennis racket could coach you? At the Forge to Field AI Pitch ...

Vanessa Chen, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering, has been named a Faculty Fellow to Apple’s New Silicon Initiative (NSI). The Apple NSI Faculty Fellows Program, part of ...

The gut plays a major role in stress levels in the human body. Often called the “second brain,” the gut constantly talks to the brain, influencing mood, and regulating stress hormones like cortisol.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded Tathagata Srimani, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering, the Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Award, a prestigious five ...

The human heart does more than beat, it vibrates. This hidden language of motion marks the precise opening and closing of valves, the subtle mechanics of life itself. Measuring these micro-cardiac ...

13 Carnegie Mellon alumni were named in the 2026 Forbes 30 under 30 cohort, four of whom majored in electrical and computer engineering. This annual list celebrates the achievements of young ...

The human brain is complex. Understanding deep brain function usually requires the insertion of probes that frequently result in irreversible tissue damage. Current neural probes are made out of ...

Large language models (like GPT-style models) keep getting bigger. As they grow, they need more memory and faster communication between chips to run or to train them. These needs are becoming major ...
