Champions on the court. Stewards of the land.

Nebraska's grasslands are part of who we are. They sustain our cattle industry, support wildlife and shape the communities and traditions we call home.

For generations, ranching families and land managers have cared for these working landscapes. It's a legacy of stewardship worth carrying forward.

More than 100 years. More than 2,300 tractors tested. One Nebraska laboratory with a worldwide impact.

Since 1920, the Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory on @unlincoln's East Campus has helped shape how agricultural equipment is tested around the world.

Today, the lab continues that legacy through independent equipment testing, emerging technology and hands-on learning opportunities for Nebraska students.

Swipe through for a look at the people and equipment behind more than a century of agricultural innovation.

University of Nebraska, Lincoln student Aruneem Bhowmick took on an incredibly ambitious research project this summer as a part of Wallot's inaugural research cohort.

He chose to pursue research on Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs), an advanced application of graph theory principles which helps determine "what's actually happening" inside any given LLM. This area of research is especially important in the domain of LLM interpretability, which helps researchers reduce the opaqueness of LLM activations. As AI becomes more prevalent in new domains of everyday life, the ability to quickly and accurately troubleshoot LLM behavior is at a huge premium.

Congratulations to Aruneem for an exciting and timely research project 🚀

#Robotics, #AI, and #healthcare are coming together in a new research effort at the Durham School!

Led by Dr. Kyungki Kim, the UNL–UNMC Healthcare Robotics Lab is preparing to explore how robotic technology can better support people with Parkinson’s disease in long-term care settings.

Supported by the PALTC Foundation in collaboration with @immanuelcommunities , the project centers on a Robotic Health Attendant (RHA) powered by multimodal AI. The research will explore how clinicians can help define tasks based on residents’ needs and real-world care workflows, allowing the robotic system to assist with care-related activities.

The project builds on several years of collaboration between the #UNL–#UNMC Healthcare Robotics Lab and @immanuelcommunities, bringing together expertise in robotics, healthcare, and long-term care.

We’re excited to see where this research leads and look forward to sharing more as the project progresses! 👏

What happens when producers help shape the future of agricultural technology?

That idea is at the center of the new Nebraska Digital Ag Hub.

Researchers, Nebraska Extension professionals, students, producers and industry will work together to develop, test and improve technologies for real-world agriculture — from precision irrigation and robotics to remote sensing, AI, data science and livestock technologies.

And Nebraska fields will be part of where that future is built, tested and put to work.

A new $1.4 million Department of Energy (DOE) grant will power nuclear reactor safety training and workforce development in Nebraska. Part of this grant will be used to introduce three new College of Engineering courses designed for students to learn theoretical knowledge of nuclear reactors and safety. The grant will also fund rigorous training, industry-recognized certification and research internships, as well as educational youth camps and outreach programs.

Bai Cui, professor of mechanical and materials engineering, shares, "Beyond the grant itself, I am most excited about the opportunities this project will create for our students. Through education, hands-on training, research experiences and engagement with industry and national laboratories, we hope to help shape and prepare the next generation of nuclear energy professionals for Nebraska and the United States."
