One central fact that shapes everything else about the future is this: In 2050, we are expected to have 9 billion people on planet Earth. With this unprecedented growth comes new kinds of problems that we all share, problems that we must solve at a planetary scale and, most certainly, with technology. Materials engineering – the ability to control matter at the atomic level – is at the core of solving key technological challenges that will help mankind including big data, smart vehicles, Internet-of-Things and personalized medicine. Dr. Nalamasu will address how materials engineering will help to solve some of these challenges.
