- LSU CM PhD Candidate Recognized as SEC Emerging ScholarAugust 30, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - LSU Bert S. Turner Department of Construction Management PhD candidate Shashank Muley was recently recognized as an SEC Emerging Scholar. The SEC Emerging Scholars Program was created to offer graduate students enrolled in terminal degree programs at member institutions a pathway to prepare for tenure-stream positions in higher education. The SEC sees a strategic advantage in sharing information that will contribute to this shared goal and encourages graduates to seek positions within SEC institutions.
- Engineering Researchers Develop Method for Removing Micropollutants From Natural WatersAugust 30, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - Researchers in LSU's Cain Department of Chemical Engineering (ChE) and Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) have developed an energy-efficient method for rapidly removing pharmaceuticals and other micropollutants from natural waters, like the Mississippi River. The result could help reduce the carbon footprint of reclaiming and reusing water in drought-prone areas.

- LSU Researchers Awarded NSF Grant to Address Optimization in Infrastructure SystemsAugust 29, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - A team of LSU researchers from electrical and computer engineering and physics was recently awarded nearly $500,000 from the National Science Foundation for a project to develop quantum computing-inspired algorithms that will address optimization problems appearing in various critical infrastructure systems, including power systems.
- LSU's Lawrence Receives NIH Grant to Improve MRI ImagingAugust 23, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - In five years' time, LSU Chemical Engineering Assistant Professor Jimmy Lawrence's current project may enable patients to benefit from metal-free MRI contrast agents that are safer, more reliable, and chemically versatile. Indeed, these new contrast agents could prove crucial for the diagnosis and monitoring of damaged blood vessels, small tumors, and abnormal tissues.
- LSU Engineering Students Turn Lemons Into Lemons Racing ClubAugust 15, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - On a hot July morning, LSU Mechanical Engineering sophomores Liam Songné and Carter Mims find shade under a hovering old oak tree while they work on a vintage car in the driveway. Most people collect old cars to restore them, but these students are doing quite the opposite. They are dismantling an already-sparse 1966 Dodge Coronet to race as part of the newly-formed Lemons Racing Club at LSU.
- LSU Civil and Environmental Engineering, Geography and Anthropology Research Preservation of Native American SitesAugust 9, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - Research has shown that the Louisiana coast is slipping away little by little, which will continue to impact coastal communities. One such community that goes mostly unnoticed are Native Americans, whose archaeological sites are greatly affected by coastal erosion. Wanting to help Louisiana tribes sustain their sacred ground, faculty in the LSU Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and LSU Department of Geography and Anthropology are working alongside other Louisiana universities to evaluate and determine how these tribes can protect their land.
- LSU, UT-Austin Hosting Meeting on CO2 Storage MonitoringAugust 4, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - Media are invited to attend the opening of the International Energy Agency Greenhouse Gas (IEAGHG) Monitoring Network Meeting on Tuesday, Aug. 8, at 8 a.m., in the Noland/Laborde Hall at the Cook Conference Center on LSU's campus.
- LSU Engineering Students Return to Germany for Study AbroadAugust 3, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - For two weeks at the end of May, LSU Engineering students ventured around Germany and Austria, experiencing the local culture and learning about engineering practices overseas as part of "Grand Challenges in Engineering."
- Paper by LSU Chemical Engineering Faculty, Team Offers New De-Carbonizing SolutionsAugust 2, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - In a recently published paper in Chem, LSU Chemical Engineering Professor Kunlun Ding's group and a team of researchers from Columbia University, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and Stony Brook University detail a breakthrough in carbon dioxide (CO2) and natural gas conversions. Their project could offer a new solution for de-carbonizing the chemical industry.
- LSU Mechanical Engineering's Gartia Receives Nearly $2M National Institutes of Health AwardJuly 31, 2023BATON ROUGE, LA - LSU Mechanical Engineering Associate Professor Manas Gartia is the first LSU Engineering faculty to receive the NIH MIRA R35 award (National Institutes of Health Maximizing Investigators' Research Award for Early Stage Investigators). The $1.875 million grant, the maximum amount one can receive from this award, will help him to develop spatial lipidomic techniques and investigate lipid-driven cell death in drug-resistant cancer. Lipidomics is the large-scale study of pathways and networks of cellular lipids in biological systems.
