Dr. Dileep Kalathil

Dr. Dileep Kalathil received the prestigious Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Award from the National Science Foundation. With the award he will address three major challenges of the artificial intelligence evolution – resiliency, scalability and data efficiency of the system.

Texas A&M University researchers have developed a new algorithm based on deep learning that can take low-resolution images and generate their high-resolution counterparts in real time.

A cancer cell with a symbol of the target shown on it.

Texas A&M University researchers have described a new process to purify astatine-211, a promising radioactive isotope for targeted cancer treatment. Their technique can extract astatine-211 from bismuth in minutes rather than hours, which can greatly reduce the time between production and delivery to the patient.

Winter storms left an estimated 3 million Texans without power in dangerously cold temperatures. Dr. Thomas Overbye, director of the Smart Grid Center, discusses what happened and how to approach hardening infrastructures like the electric grid for similar low frequency, high impact events in the future.

Researchers at Texas A&M University have shown that water treatment has the potential to get rid of 99.999% of enveloped viruses—those that have an outer fortress, which includes the coronavirus—from drinking water.

Chemical engineers from Texas A&M University have uncovered key characteristics of the motility of Helicobacter pylori, a carcinogen that can lead to certain types of cancer. Treatments targeting the motility system of the bacteria could eliminate the risk of antibiotic resistance.

Dr. Elaine Oran will lead a team of researchers at the new Detonation Research Test Facility. The researchers will examine how flammable gases and other materials interact and sometimes detonate on a massive scale. When complete, the facility will likely be the largest university-based facility of its kind in the world.
