College of Science and Technology and other Temple faculty, staff and students make headlines every day. Read a sampling of our recent media hits.
From The Philadelphia Inquirer:
When rush-hour traffic slows along the stretch of the Schuylkill Expressway between Conshohocken and Belmont Avenue, Laura Toran, a Temple geology professor, suggests that motorists savor the view. Toran is a connoisseur of what she calls "groundwater outcrops.” According to geologists, the ice along the expressway is the result of the collision of modern life and 1.1-billion-year-old rocks. More.
From Time:
How does one explain the scale of a trillion dollar deficit? To the average person, a number that big doesn't mean very much. Unfortunately, our brains aren't up to the task. Go back thousands of years and think about the simpler times of human existence. "We had a few friends, we had to be scared of a few animals. A trillion didn't come up very often," says Temple mathematician John Allen Paulos, whose book Innumeracy addresses the topic. More.
From howstuffworks.com:
Physics chair Rongjia Tao's electrorheology device for increasing fuel efficiency was featured in a story on the howstuffworks.com homepage. “The big deal about this invention is how easy it would be to add it to our cars,” the article notes. “The pieces of mesh can simply be inserted into an existing fuel injector, positioned before the fuel hits the nozzle. The cost, then, would be relatively low.” More.
From The Philadelphia Inquirer:
Molecular biologist Antonio Giordano of Temple's College of Science and Technology, president of the Sbarro Health Research Organization, shared his thoughts on cancer research and Italian-American scientific collaboration in an interview with Miriam Hill. More. |
