The field of prevention science is quickly changing the way we think about health and well-being, tracing it back to childhood. On this episode of the State of Research podcast, our discussion with Nathaniel Riggs, professor and director of the Prevention Research Center at Colorado State University, reveals why adolescents are more often involved with risky behaviors and how prevention research can promote lifelong success.

Did you know researchers at Colorado State University are working to 3D-print a material that’s almost chemically identical to bone? Nelson Isaacson, a graduate student researcher in the School of Advanced Materials Discovery, is working to make this bone-like material stronger so it can be used in surgeries of bone-damage patients in places like the hips and legs that bare considerable weight. The goal is also to make this material bioresorbable, meaning once implanted into a human body, the bone-like material will incorporate itself into the existing bone and become virtually unnoticeable.

The destruction caused by forest fires in the western U.S. has only been increasing in recent years. This episode, we learn about ways to combat wildfires and the policy barriers that exist to implement prescribed burns with expert and CSU professor, Courtney Schultz.

Andrea Jenney and Kyle Chudler are two researchers in the Department of Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University. To better understand storms and the monsoon season in the West Pacific and the Bay of Bengal, they each took to the seas for a month to collect data. Working on a ship comes with unique challenges but it also lends itself well to discovering new ways to conduct research with personnel across disciplines who have different ways of thinking.
