PrinTimber Team Wins Hacking For Homebuilding Competition
University of Idaho architecture graduate students took home a $9,000 dollar prize from Boise Entrepreneur Week’s Hacking for Homebuilding Pitch Competition on October 4, 2023.
Affordable housing is needed in rural communities, and a team of researchers from Auburn University, in partnership with researchers from the University of Idaho, are developing an innovative solution to the problem by using forestry waste to create composite materials able to be additively manufactured into strong, reliable building components. The bio-resin development as the…
The International Academy of Wood Science (IAWS) recently announced that Adefemi Alade obtained the first position in their Doctoral Award and Medal for 2022. With this award the IAWS wishes to provide recognition to outstanding dissertation research at the PhD level by students throughout the world.

The Advanced Manufacturing and Materials Properties Laboratory and the Agriculture Mechanics Laboratory seeks to hire a postdoctoral fellow with engineering skills that can be applied to analyze 3D printed bio-based composites. We seek engineers who are good at communicating across disciplines, and who see themselves thriving in a highly collaborative environment. The successful candidates will…
When Marissa Hilliard joined the University of Idaho College of Art and Architecture, she knew she would combine analytical and creative thinking to work on real life projects. She didn’t expect she would be involved in creating a new sustainable construction material. A team of researchers from U of I and Auburn University are exploring how…
An interdisciplinary project connecting several Auburn University faculty and fellow scientists will address the hard-hitting reality that affordable housing is out of reach for many Americans living in rural areas. But the path of this research may lead to viable solutions that would have seemed futuristic mere years ago: planning advanced manufacturing that helps utilize…
