    KSU researcher draws on personal experience in creation of VR system designed to address grief

    September 24, 2025

    Six years ago, Assistant Professor of Game Development Lei Zhang and his wife welcomed their first child into the world. However, at 8 months old, she was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, a rapidly progressing cancer of the blood and bone marrow. Now, using virtual reality, Zhang is developing an immersive virtual reality therapeutic system where bereaved parents can meet online and support one another.

    Kennesaw State researchers developing a system to improve classroom discussion

    September 18, 2025

    More than 200,000 middle and high school science teachers in the U.S. invest hours into planning lessons for students and spend even more time reflecting on how effective their teaching has been. Few, however, can analyze live classroom discussion and make real-time changes to their teaching to help struggling students understand the subject matter, something that Kennesaw State University Associate Professor of Science Education Soon Lee and a fellow researcher are seeking to address.

    Kennesaw State researcher aiming to bring artificial intelligence to everyday devices

    September 10, 2025

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is often linked to supercomputers and massive data centers, but Kennesaw State University researcher Bobin Deng is aiming for something a bit more accessible through a new National Science Foundation (NSF) grant. An assistant professor in Kennesaw State’s College of Computing and Software Engineering, Deng said the goal is to move AI beyond the cloud and into the hands of people where it can have the most impact – their personal devices. The research could allow AI tools to function without an internet connection, something that is uncommon with many current systems.

    KSU researcher developing electronic nose to sniff out foodborne illness

    September 09, 2025

    The presence of a strong, unpleasant odor in food is an indication that bacteria has contaminated the food past the point of human consumption. However, oftentimes pathogens such as salmonella and E. coli are difficult to detect. Taeyeong Choi, assistant professor of information technology in Kennesaw State University’s College of Computing and Software Engineering, is working on developing an electronic nose (e-nose) to detect abnormalities from their version of the sniff test.

    Kennesaw State lab serves as hub for undergraduate research, scholarship

    August 27, 2025

    In Andrew Haddow’s office, a white board sits adjacent to his desk scrawled with notes indicating dates for scholarship deadlines, summer program applications, and progress on lab work. The assistant professor of microbiology said it’s all in service to his students, a color-coded guide to map success in the classroom, and as a researcher. Haddow joined KSU in 2021 after serving as a senior scientist for General Dynamics based at the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID). Since then, his lab has become a hub of student success. Each year, it hosts several high-level undergraduate research projects, often serving as a springboard for students to continue toward graduate studies.

    Kennesaw State researcher taps engineering background to discover solutions for stomach diseases

    August 25, 2025

    For many people, gastrointestinal (GI) disorders are chronic and life-altering conditions. Yet despite their prevalence, doctors are often challenged by patients experiencing persistent symptoms with no way to accurately identify and diagnose diseases. Kennesaw State University’s Lei Shi, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering in the Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering Technology (SPCEET), is working to change that. Supported by a recent National Science Foundation (NSF) grant, Shi is leading a research project that could alter how GI disorders are diagnosed and treated using virtual replicas of a human stomach.
