UArizona Provost Liesl Folks is principal investigator on a project that aims to give women in science, technology, engineering and math disciplines strategic tools to identify, address and overcome gender bias and discrimination.

A new study sheds light on the evolutionary history of the deep biosphere – a hidden realm of microbes inhabiting the upper few kilometers of Earth's crust.

Astronomers have discovered a structure thought to be a "protocluster" of galaxies on its way to developing into a galaxy supercluster. The discovery was made possible, in part, by the UArizona-managed Large Binocular Telescope.

Through a newly established NSF Science and Technology Center, UArizona researchers will use digital tools to communicate with plants and develop new crops to support sustainable agriculture.

By combining Hubble Space Telescope observations with theoretical models, a team of astronomers has gained insights into the chemical and physical makeup of a variety of exoplanets known as hot Jupiters.

The U.S. will experience more extreme cold winter weather as climate change slows down ocean currents, new research finds. The study was motivated by the extreme cold experienced in Texas earlier this year.

When the pandemic sent many students home from class, UArizona researchers developed an at-home lesson plan to teach high schoolers about bioinformatics and SARS-CoV-2.

Surprisingly little is known about how rain moves through landscapes once it's on the ground. A $3.5 million grant will allow scientists to study the role of plants and microbes in the process.
