New project aims to build social norms, policies and values into the basic architecture of the Internet of Things. Read More

Smarter zoning, better hazard maps and more stormwater management are among the key recommendations Vanderbilt environmental engineer Mark Abkowitz has for coping with extreme weather. Read More

A high-altitude weather balloon rose yesterday from a Vanderbilt garage rooftop to the edge of space to live-stream the eclipse from above Nashville and record the temporary atmospheric changes it caused.

A new energy harvesting system developed at Vanderbilt University can generate electrical current from the full range of human motions and is thin enough to embed in clothing. Read More

The liver is a particularly squishy, slippery organ, prone to shifting both deadly tumors and life-preserving blood vessels by inches between the time they鈥檙e discovered on a CT scan and when the patient is lying on an operating room table. Vanderbilt University鈥檚 Michael Miga and his team have published the potential solution. Read More
