‘A method, not a field’: Spotlight on Human-Centered Design
Professors Eugene Korsunskiy, Peter Robbie, and Rafe Steinhauer are quoted in an article about "the most popular minor at Dartmouth," which "focuses on developing students' creativity and innovation in 'addressing human needs.'" Professor Beth Ames Eagle is also mentioned as the new director of the Design Initiative at Dartmouth.

Antarctic Research Tests Healthy Bodies and Minds for Astronauts
Professor Jay Buckey is quoted in a segment about the Australian Antarctic Division's work with NASA on medical research and operational medicine. "If you look at what ends missions on Antarctica and other places, a lot of time it's the psychosocial factor. Either crews that don't get along or people who develop depression or stress. So that's a really, really important consideration and shouldn't be trivialized," Buckey said.

Rolling soft electronics yields 3D brain probes for precise neuron mapping
A feature article describes Professor Hui Fang's research, published in Nature Electronics, that demonstrates a method to achieve three-dimensional probe interfacing. The approach solves the long-running "dimensional mismatch" between typical two-dimensional probes and the brain's 3D neural circuits.

Is There a Healthy Middle Ground on AI in Schools? Try Skeptical Optimism
Professor Rafe Steinhauer is quoted in an article about using AI in schools. "I would be nervous about any school district saying, 'We're going all in (on AI).' And I would be nervous about any school district (banning the technology)," Steinhauer said. "We know already that there are tremendous risks to student learning and we know that there are tremendous opportunities with generative AI."

Predicting Nonadherence to Breast Cancer Screening
PhD student Jiahui Luo and Professor Wesley Marrero—with quantitative biomedical sciences PhD student Guofang Ma and Miranda Scully '26—co-authored "Modeling the impact of social determinants on breast cancer screening: a data-driven approach" published in Frontiers in Medicine. "The study identified opportunities for healthcare organizations to transform sociodemographic data into targeted, facility-level intervention strategies while adapting to payer incentives and addressing screening gaps," said Marrero.

Strategic Cyber Defense
PhD student Mai Pham and professors Vikrant Vaze and Peter Chin coauthored "Strategic Cyber Defense via Reinforcement Learning-Guided Combinatorial Auctions" which was chosen for presentation at the IEEE High Performance Extreme Computing Conference. "This work formulates the cyber defense problem, in which we act as a defense agent protecting a network from malware attackers, as a combinatorial auction," said Pham. "We combined reinforcement learning with differentiable mechanism design to find the best resource allocation for the hosts, which aims to upstream decision making and proactively protect the network."

Toward Greener Batteries
Research Associate Peiyu Wang Th'25, PhD students Huilin Qing and Ruiwen Zhang, and Professor Fiona Li coauthored "Fluorine-free electrolytes for sustainable lithium batteries: a review" published in npj Materials Sustainability. The paper highlights insights and advances in fluorine-free salts, solvents, additives, and interphases, along with challenges and opportunities, offering sustainable solutions potentially competitive with conventional fluorinated electrolytes. "Modern lithium battery electrolytes rely on fluorinated components to enhance performance and functionality, but such schemes raise safety, environmental, and cost concerns due to hydrogen fluoride generation and hazardous production," said Li.
