Professor Shuwen Yue, in collaboration with Qi (Tony) Dong from Purdue University and Jihye Kim from the Colorado School of Mines, is among the six cross-disciplinary teams funded in the inaugural year of Scialog: Sustainable Minerals, Metals, and Materials. This three-year initiative aims to drive breakthroughs in the mining, design, manufacturing, and disposal of materials essential for a sustainable, low-carbon energy future.
Each collaborator received a $60,000 award for their project, AI/ML-Assisted Separation and Programmable Electrodeposition of Ni and Co. These awards are jointly funded by the Research Corporation for Science Advancement, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, and the Kavli Foundation.
Researchers have identified exactly what happens when a microbe receives an electron from a quantum dot: The charge can either follow a direct pathway or be transferred indirectly via the microbe’s... Read more about Electrons travel one of two routes in nano-biohybrid systems
