UArizona astrophysicists Feryal Özel and Dimitrios Psaltis identified Sagittarius A* as an ideal target black hole more than 20 years ago. They call it a "Goldilocks black hole," with an environment "just right" for capturing an image.

Snapping an image of a black hole is just the beginning, says researcher Chi-Kwan "CK" Chan. To really understand the image, it must be compared with black hole simulations. UArizona worked with partners to create the world's largest simulation library.

Operation Hat Trick, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting wounded veterans, has again named UArizona the winner of its Excellence in Service Award. The university was recognized for  supporting service members and veterans through the sale of military-themed merchandise.

During a visit to campus, NASA Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy discussed some of the space agency's most ambitious and impactful space missions with the UArizona early-career scientists who pursue them.

Seven undergraduates will earn four university-wide awards at Friday's Commencement ceremony. The awards recognize character, integrity, perseverance and academic achievement.

For the first time since the start of the pandemic, Commencement will bring all graduates together in person at Arizona Stadium. Dante Lauretta, principal investigator of NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission, will deliver the keynote address.

Led by University of Arizona alumnus Arthur "Barney" Maccabe, the Institute for the Future of Data and Computing will explore the societal questions driving how and why data is used.  By integrating data, networking and computing, he says researchers can target today's most complex and pressing challenges, such as precision health care, cyberspace security and climate resilience.

The partnership will advance pain and addiction research and accelerate positive health outcomes in Arizona, Oklahoma and across the country.

Engineering students competed for more than $46,000 in prizes at the first in-person Engineering Design Day since 2019, with projects ranging from a battery-powered flashbang alternative to mealworm protein bars.

Parkinson's disease is perhaps best known for its movement-related symptoms, but it can also hinder vocal production. New research suggests that a specific gene commonly associated with Parkinson's may be behind those vocal issues – a finding that could help lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment for Parkinson's patients.
