"In a situation where safety is paramount and [also] making sure we are working with efficiency, not having a digital lab infrastructure can have real impact on the work we are doing." In our new series, we go into the lab to highlight several of our Institute researchers. Today, learn more about our Materials Discovery Research Institute Lead Data Scientist, Akshay Talekar. At the Materials Discovery lab, we work to develop and deploy new materials with the potential to address current global safety challenges. We harness the power of advanced computing and high-throughput experimental methods to create innovative materials for renewable energy and eco-remidation, while also paying careful attention to implications for human health.
