Summer's almost here, and with it, the chore of mowing the lawn, but researchers at Case Western Reserve University are had at work making sure you won't have to work too hard. They're working on robotic lawnmowers, fuel cells, and technology to increase human life spans, among a host of other projects, all of which are on display this week at CWRU's Research ShowCASE. Join us Tuesday morning at 9 for a conversation about where local research is heading and how soon we'll get there.
