NSF Announces MIT-led Institute for
Artificial Intelligence and Fundamental
Interactions E
The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF)
announced an investment of more than $100
million to establish five artificial intelligence
institutes, each receiving roughly $20 million
over five years. One of these, the NSF AI Insti-
tute for Artificial Intelligence and Fundamental
Interactions (IAIFI), will be led by MIT's Labo-
ratory for Nuclear Science and become the in-
tellectual home of more than 25 physics and
AI senior researchers at MIT and Harvard, and

Columbia Engineering: Laser Inversion
Enables Multi-Materials 3D Printing E
Additive manufacturing—or 3D printing—uses
digital manufacturing processes to fabricate
components that are light, strong, and require
no special tooling to produce. Over the past
decade, the field has experienced stagger-
ing growth, at a rate of more than 20% per
year, printing pieces that range from aircraft
components and car parts to medical and
dental implants out of metals and engineering
polymers.
Eliminating Latency in Next-Gen
WiFi 6E Devices E
The product utilizes a novel proprietary ceram-
ic material in a low temperature co-fired ce-
ramic (LTCC) manufacturing process designed
to improve performance similar to high-Q
standards' performance. The high-Q factor is
a unitless numerical value that represents the
performance of an RF component.
