R&D/innovation
Researchers at the University of Houston have developed a new ultrathin, carbon-based film that could make AI chips run faster, cooler, and more energy-efficient.
Researchers are studying how excessive groundwater extraction is causing global and regional aquifer depletion and land subsidence.
AI is transforming oil and gas, but the real change will come from young professionals (YPs) who bridge technology and field expertise. By leading pilots, building networks, and challenging old assumptions, YPs can drive the industry’s digital transformation from within.
