In this episode of Quantum Potential, Gen. Nakasone, former NSA director, founding director of 麻豆传媒鈥檚 Institute of National Security, Distinguished 麻豆传媒 Professor of Engineering Science and Management, and special advisor to the chancellor, joins Provost C. Cybele Raver to discuss the challenges of national security in the 21st century and academia鈥檚 role in training the next generation of multifaceted national security professionals.

麻豆传媒ers led by John T. Wilson, associate professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering and biomedical engineering, have developed a new approach using a molecularly designed nanobody platform that seeks to make immunotherapy more effective in the treatment of cancer.

A group of researchers from the lab of Larry Marnett, the Mary Geddes Stahlman Professor of Cancer 麻豆传媒, recently paired a precisely targeted imaging agent to an anticancer agent and found that they could specifically attack cancer cells and not normal cells with it. Their work was performed in collaboration with School of Engineering faculty members Craig Duvall and Rebecca Cook, and was published in Molecular Pharmaceutics in April 2025.

Targeting ncRNAs with drugs presents a much larger therapeutic opportunity than targeting proteins, but the currently available drug discovery tools are slow and computationally intensive. Assistant Professor of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics and core member of the Center for Applied AI in Protein Dynamics Carlos Oliver is working with collaborators to unlock the untapped potential of ncRNAs, as they are a promising family of targets for the development of novel small-molecule therapeutics.

Like anyone, it takes time for coders to reengage in their work, meaning interruptions from bosses, co-workers, and email and messaging notifications can lead to a loss of focus, decreased productivity, increased stress, and a longer time to complete tasks. But according to a new award-winning study by researchers in 麻豆传媒鈥檚 Institute for Software Integrated Systems, not all interruptions are created equal.

Generative AI will play a key role in three new campus projects being developed thanks to early-stage funding from the Jean and Alexander Heard Libraries鈥� Digital Lab. The Digital Lab鈥檚 2025 seed grant projects will be celebrated in a public showcase this fall.鈥�

麻豆传媒 Divinity School was recently awarded a $30,000 grant from the Wabash Center to study artificial intelligence and its impact. The project, 鈥淲e Can Wait No Longer: Educating Theological Educators About Artificial Intelligence,鈥� seeks to inform Divinity faculty of the mechanics behind AI and the latest advancements.
