Clinical trial testing automatic oxygen control device for premature infants
Eric Stann / MU News Bureau The consequences are dire for the health of a premature baby — too much oxygen can cause blindness, and too little oxygen can cause brain damage and other negative health effects. Some premature babies need the help of life-saving machines in a neonatal intensive care unit, or NICU, to provide oxygen that eases the struggle to take their first breaths. However, small, personalized adjustments — to either raise or lower the level of oxygen provided — must be made by hand under the careful attention of nurses and respiratory therapists. Now, a clinical…

Mizzou Engineering team discovers method to control sound waves in the fourth dimension
Professor Guoliang Huang and graduate student Hui Chen show off the three-dimensional structure they created to observe audio waves in the fourth dimension. Using a type of material that conducts electricity on the edges while insulating the inside, a Mizzou Engineering team has discovered a way to control sound waves beyond our three-dimensional environment. Guoliang Huang, Huber and Helen Croft Chair in Engineering, and co-authors published their ground-breaking findings in last month’s issue of Nature Communications. Huang and Hui Chen, a post-doctoral fellow in mechanical and aerospace engineering, built a simulated environment in which they observed the acoustic waves in four-dimensional…
