Climate Change: Decarbonization Rises

Sweeping commitments to address climate change will birth new technologies By Bernard S. Meyerson More than a century after the first scientist argued that carbon dioxide could trap heat in the atmosphere and decades after “climate change” entered the vernacular, countries and industries have been making new commitments to cut their carbon footprin...

Agriculture: Crops That self-fertilize

Root-grown instead of sown By Wilfried Weber and Carlo Ratti Providing food for the world’s growing population relies heavily on the use of nitrogen-containing industrial fertilizers. Some 110 million tons of nitrogen are required to sustain global crop production annually, according to the U.N.’s Food and Agriculture Organization. Nitrogen fertili...

Biochemistry: Breath Sensors Diagnose Diseases

Puffing is far faster than drawing blood By Rona Chandrawati and Daniel E. Hurtado When police officers suspect a motorist is intoxicated, they can use a Breathalyzer: a handheld device that measures the level of alcohol in the blood. Can the same be done for disease diagnosis? The short answer is yes. Human breath contains more than 800 compounds,...

Engineering: On-Demand Drug Manufacturing

Making pharmaceuticals where and when they are needed By Elizabeth O’Day and Mine Orlu What if the next time you went to your local pharmacy, rather than the pharmacist looking through aisles of premade drugs to fill your prescription, he or she made it to the exact dose and formulation tailored for you? Recent advances in microfluidics and on-dema...

Computing: Energy from Wireless Signals

5G will help power the Internet of Things By Joseph Costantine The wireless devices that make up the Internet of Things (IoT) constitute the backbone of an ever more networked world. They are deployed as gadgets in homes, as wearable devices for biomedical uses, and as sensors in hazardous and hard-to-reach areas. As the IoT grows, it is enabling a...

Genomics: Engineering Better Aging

A focus on increasing “healthspan,” not just lifespan By Wilfried Weber and P. Murali Doraiswamy According to the World Health Organization, between 2015 and 2050 the proportion of the global population older than 60 will nearly double from 12 to 22 percent, posing enormous challenges to health and social systems. Aging is related to chronic diseas...

Chemistry: Green Ammonia

Reducing the CO2footprint of fertilizer production By Javier García Martínez and Sarah E. Fawcett The Haber-Bosch process—arguably one of the most important inventions of the 20th century that many people have never heard of—enables synthesis of ammonia on an industrial scale. This ammonia is used to produce the fertilizers that fuel 50 percent of ...

Bioinformatics: Biomarker Devices Go Wireless

Continuous, noninvasive monitoring of chronic diseases By Joseph Costantine Nobody likes needles. But monitoring chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer requires frequent blood work to identify and track certain biological markers, or biomarkers. Now more than 100 companies are developing wireless, portable and wearable sensors that will soon ...

Materials Science: Houses Printed with Local Materials

Concrete is swapped for soil By Bernard S. Meyerson and Carlo Ratti Technologies such as childhood vaccines or LASIK eye surgery tend to dramatically improve quality of life for many people in the industrial world. But their influence in developing nations has often been far more limited or significantly delayed. Building houses with 3-D printers, ...
