Could There Ever Be a Worldwide Internet Outage?
Professor George Cybenko is quoted in an article about the possibility of a worldwide internet outage. "It is possible but would require significant resources and/or huge coincidences, which makes it a highly unlikely, but possible, event," Cybenko said.

Better Liver Transplant Decisions
PhD student Jiahui "Gary" Luo and Professor Wesley Marrero, with researchers at U Michigan, developed a new simulation framework to analyze liver transplant decisions, which was published in IEEE's 2025 Winter Simulation Conference. The team created a continuous-time simulation that models patient health and organ arrivals while mimicking real-world, varied organ acceptance practices. "The study concludes that high selectivity is a major obstacle to saving lives. Because small quality differences have modest survival effects, accepting a broader range of medically suitable organs can significantly reduce waiting times and maximize the lifesaving potential of the donor pool," said Marrero.

Next-Gen Batteries for Grid Storage
Research Associate Peiyu Wang Th'25, PhD students Huilin Qing, Baiheng Li, and Ruiwen Zhang, and Professor Weiyang (Fiona) Li co-authored "Semi-liquid lithium−sulfur batteries for large-scale energy storage" published in Nature Reviews Clean Technology. This review examines catholyte chemistry and design, static and redox flow configurations, and strategies to improve performance and scalability for large-scale energy storage. "Lithium–sulfur batteries offer high energy density and cost-effectiveness but are limited by the precipitation of solid sulfur species, which has driven interest in semi-liquid systems," said Li.

Machine-Learning-Enabled Phototransistors
PhD student Simon Agnew '22, Research Associate Xavier Cadet, and professors Peter Chin and Will Scheideler co-authored "Decoding disorder: Machine learning unlocks multi-wavelength and intensity sensing in a single indium oxysulfide phototransistor" published in Device. The paper presents machine-learning-enabled phototransistors that decode both light wavelength and intensity from a single printed device—no filters or sensor arrays required. This work points toward simpler, lower-cost, and more scalable multi-parameter sensing for flexible optoelectronics. "By combining scalable liquid-metal printing of ultrathin indium oxysulfide with data-driven analysis, we show how disorder—often viewed as a limitation in printed semiconductors—can be turned into a powerful sensing feature," said Scheideler.
