Materials discovery has always started with what we find in nature. We combine and adapt found materials for properties like strength, elasticity and electrical conductivity, says Professor Ted Sargent (ECE), the principal investigator of the new consortium. But what if AI can help us flip this process on its head? Could we start from the properties we’re seeking, and work backwards?

As we welcome new and returning ECE students #BackToSkule this week, we are kicking off the academic year with four new faculty members who joined ECE at the University of Toronto this summer. Our new faculty members demonstrate exceptional talent and bring diverse and innovative teaching and research perspectives, says Professor Deepa Kundur, Chair of ECE.
