How L’Oreal Uses Digital Simulation to Explore Sustainable Product Ingredients
Most of us could name at least one cosmetic or personal care product that’s essential to looking and feeling our best. Whether it’s a specific kind of soap, a brand of mascara, the right shade of lipstick or the shampoo that works best for our hair, these products have become a critical part of our daily routine.
Uncovering Better Materials for the Spacecraft of Tomorrow
When it comes to solving problems for his job, the work done by Dr. Levi Moore actually is rocket science. As a research chemist with the United States Air Force Research Laboratory, he’s tasked with helping to develop new materials that make it easier and safer to launch rockets into space.
Sustainable Food Packaging Designed at the Atomic Level
Each year, an estimated 330 million metric tonnes of plastic are produced globally. A significant portion of that plastic becomes waste, clogging landfills, rivers, and the ocean for centuries, damaging ecosystems and negatively impacting human health.
