Life Research

Scientists working at the MagLab use powerful magnets to learn more about living structures and investigate disease.

Energy icon

Energy Research

Creating, storing and conserving energy — a product for which there is a limited supply and nearly unlimited demand — has been a topic of global conversations for decades.
