For 70 years, computers have operated on an architectural framework that has worked exceedingly well, multiplying speed and functionality many times over through improvements to core, individual components.

Prasanna Balachandran, assistant professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, will be collaborating with professors from EE and Physics, working to shrink computing memory bits on a nanoscale level using tiny magnetic structures called "skyrmions.”

“We do systems pharmacology,” he says. “We are trying to understand the implications of what we find relative to the molecular structure of the whole living system. The systems...
