Dr. Ronald Latanision: The Evolution of the Materials Genome Initiative
Date — Tuesday- April 30, 2024
Time — Seminar: 3:00pm, Reception: 4:00-4:30pm
Location — WALC-Room 1018
The Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) was launched by the White House (OSTP) in June of 2011, with the aim of increasing U.S. global competitiveness by significantly accelerating the pace at which advanced materials are discovered, developed, and transitioned into manufactured products. This presentation focuses on the results of 18-month National Academies study evaluating NSF Efforts to Achieve the Nation’s Vision for the Materials Genome Initiative. That NSF program is called Designing Materials to Revolutionize and Engineer Our Future, DMREF. This study should be of particular interest to faculty interested in (a) developing new materials to meet the design specifications for advanced engineering systems, and (b) assembling these materials into manufactured products.
