Unlocking hydrogen’s potential for renewable energy storage, transport
Hydrogen is the lightest, most abundant element on earth. It also serves as an energy carrier, and as such, holds great promise when it comes to decreasing the global reliance on fossil fuels. The problem, however, is that current methods of storing and transporting the molecule can be unsafe, inefficient, and expensive.
AI opens a path to a better understanding of changes in the brain
Brain networks are often represented by graph models that incorporate neuroimaging data from MRI or CT scans to represent functional or structural connections within the brain. These brain graphs can be used to understand how the organ changes over time.
Traditionally, however, these models treat the brain graphs as static, which can miss or ignore underlying changes that could signal the onset of disease or neurological disorders.

Can wildfires sparked by power systems be prevented?
First-of-its-kind research, led by CEE Prof. Paolo Bocchini and PhD student Xinyue Wang, can help decision-makers determine when a shutoff is warranted
A cool (temperature) take on direct air carbon capture
Lehigh University engineering researchers working with a Pennsylvania-based technology company have recently entered the second phase in the development of a novel ion-exchange method to capture carbon dioxide that could potentially run on waste heat produced by industry.
‘Cutting the cord’ to advance ocean data collection
The ocean is often considered the final frontier. In the past two decades, observatory sensor systems have been deployed off coastlines to collect and transmit a vast range of physical, chemical, geological, and biological data. But these technologies are currently powered by subsea cables, which limits the distance they can operate from shore and, therefore, our knowledge of scientifically interesting areas.
