2024: Innovation in motion

From harnessing DNA for data storage to protecting mobile home residents from extreme heat, ASU researchers are propelling us into a thriving future through discovery and innovation.

In our latest collection of highlights, learn how ASU experts connect with local communities to enhance their well-being. For example, they are helping rural residents manage dwindling water supplies, recycling plastic and manufacturing new products in one unique facility, and accelerating local startups in the growing space industry.

Discover how researchers leverage the latest technologies to solve critical problems, exploring the frontiers of AI and virtual reality to advance research and enhance learning. ASU is also a driving force in establishing Arizona as a national hub for microelectronics research and development.

Building on that momentum, our executive vice president, Sally C. Morton, shares her vision for what’s ahead. Perhaps one day we will conduct research from a new ASU Innovation Zone — on Mars!
