Quantum chemist Ernest Opoku is working on computational methods to study how electrons behave as a School of Science Dean’s Postdoctoral Fellow.

Mantel, founded by MIT alumni, developed a system that captures CO2 from factories and power plants while delivering steam to customers.

Industry leaders agree collaboration is key to advancing critical technologies.

The approach could transform large-scale biomanufacturing by enabling automated and contamination-conscious workflows for cell therapies, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine.

The system can be paired with any atmospheric water harvesting material to shake out drinking water in minutes instead of hours.

The team adapted the medical technique to study slag waste that was a byproduct of ancient copper smelting.
