Computer science and engineering alum Pranav Gupta '18 earned the 2025 Innovation Award from Energy Central for his work at ICF, which includes Sightline, a platform that creates digital twins for utilities to model the energy savings and grid demand of adjustments like attic insulation and heat pumps at the scale of millions of homes.

In a recent Labs to Lives video, Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering Audry Fan discusses how continued research support from the National Institutes of Health is critical for advancing dementia care, such as earlier diagnosis and improved treatments for Alzheimer’s.

The materials science and engineering Ph.D. student will spend a year at Advanced Light Source, a science user facility at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, to image magnetic spin textures in three dimensions and use advanced algorithms to reconstruct their magnetization vectors, which could lead to revolutionizing how information is stored and processed.
