Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) make up about 30 percent of our proteome. They are important to many fundamental aspects of biology and disrupted in disease. Since they lack a stable shape, ...

Northwestern Engineering’s Justin Notestein and Michael Beltran are the 2025 recipients of the Masahiro and Eiko Meshii Award. The honor recognizes faculty members for excellence in design education.

Wastewater treatment plants emit far more greenhouse gases—especially methane and nitrous oxide—than previously estimated, significantly contributing to climate change. Researchers analyzed ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a key driver of geopolitical power imbalances, fueling the competition for technological supremacy and economic dominance and intensifying global ...

Industrialization disrupted the labor of artisans and craftworkers, just as the era of information technology and automation shifted workforce tasks and led to occupational obsolescence. How will the ...

A team led by Northwestern Engineering researchers has developed the first artificial intelligence (AI) to date that can intelligently design robots from scratch. To test the new AI, the researchers ...

As Earth’s climate continues to warm, researchers around the globe are exploring ways to capture CO 2 from the air and store it deep underground. The method transforms CO2 into valuable, ...

Responsive materials that morph and adapt like biological systems are non-trivial to design and manufacture. Researchers developed a co-design framework that unites AI, physics, and 3D printing into ...
