Michael Beyeler, assistant professor of computer science and psychological & brain services
UCSB professor receives $1.5 million grant to develop a smart bionic eye aimed at enabling the blind to see.
Scientists develop a method for recycling plastic into high-value plastic molecules

Electricity flowing through a metal coil generates electric (purple) and magnetic (faint green) fields. This changes the properties of the substrate, which tunes the resonance ring (red) to different frequencies. The whole setup enables the scientists to convert a continuous beam of light (red on left) into pulses that can carry data through a fiber-optic cable. Illustration by Brian Long
Researchers create a device to streamline interactions between ultra-cold and room-temperature computers.
