RESEARCH

HUMAN HEALTH

Michigan chemical engineers are developing lab-on-a-chip devices to do genetic analysis and biomolecule synthesis. We are improving drug delivery and medical imaging by studying how molecules move and distribute throughout the body.

NET ZERO

We are driven by the challenge: how to power the modern world without polluting it. We are leaders in taking a molecular-level approach to designing distributed, sustainable systems that solve energy and environmental problems on a global scale.

MATTER BY DESIGN

We are leading a revolution in transformative material design, from atomically precise manufacturing to predictive, bio-mimicking, programmable nanomaterials. These materials, precisely designed and manufactured on demand, will impact life across the world and make the impossible, possible.
