Researcher Continues Developing Promising Nanoparticles for Medical Applications Original
Sudipta Seal is determined to increase patient survivorship and enhance their quality of life. As a UCF Pegasus Professor and chair of materials science and engineering department, Seal takes his research down to the nanoscale. He focuses on cerium oxide nanoparticles known as nanoceria. These specialized nanoparticles are versatile and can be tailored for a variety of medical applications. Since arriving at UCF in 1997, Seal has 92 UCF patents to his credit, with more than 450 journal papers.
UCF Planetary Scientist’s Innovations Help Pave the Way for Economic Activity Beyond Earth
Imagine UCF researchers living and working on the moon and companies mining and using lunar resources to launch rockets further into space. That’s what UCF planetary scientist Phil Metzger ’00MS’05PhD predicts in the not-too-distant future. “Within a few decades, that’ll be a real thing when you look at the trajectory of the space industry and how access to space is becoming less costly,” Metzger says.

UCF Researcher Develops Nanotechnologies for Sustainable Agriculture, Optimized Drug Delivery
Prolific University of Central Florida inventor Swadeshmukul Santra is developing new technologies that hold promise not only for sustainable agriculture, but also for improved medicine. Santra, a professor in UCF’s NanoTechnology Science Center, has 34 UCF inventions under his belt and leads the university’s Materials Innovation for Sustainable Agriculture (MISA) center, a U.S. Department of Agriculture-National Institute of Food and Agricultural recognized Center of Excellence.
New technology uses AI and virtual reality to monitor safety of bridges and buildings
Monitoring the structural health of the nation's aging buldings and bridges is vital to keeping people safe and helping prevent tragedies such as the Surfside condominium collapse in 2021. That's why University of Central Florida researchers have developed four new inventions that use artificial intelligence and virtual reality to improve the structural health monitoring of buildings, bridges, roads and other civil structures.

UCF researchers develop new technology to recycle greenhouse gas into energy, materials
By Kathleen Snoeblen, University of Central Florida News A pair of University of Central Florida researchers has developed new methods to produce energy and materials from the harmful greenhouse gas, methane. Pound-for-pound, the comparative impact of methane on the Earth’s atmosphere is 28 times greater than carbon dioxide — another major greenhouse gas — over a 100-year period, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

New Green Storage System Offers Renewable Energy On-Demand
Back to the Future movie fans may remember the term “flux capacitor” as a fictional device that allows for time travel. That device still doesn’t exist, but a University of Central Florida storage technology does use a different type of flux capacitor developed by NASA.
UCF researchers create technology that harvests radio waves for energy
To meet the growing energy needs of the internet of things (IoT) and wireless communication systems, University of Central Florida researchers have developed a technology for converting radio frequency signals into direct current electricity. The technology can reduce the electronic industry's reliance on batteries and broaden the expansion of the internet of things and its energy needs.
