Researchers at IIT Guwahati have created a breakthrough MXene‑based material that can simultaneously produce hydrogen fuel and purify seawater, addressing two critical global challenges—clean energy scarcity and lack of safe drinking water. The innovation marks a major advance in sustainable materials for a green hydrogen economy and solar‑powered desalination.
IIT Jodhpur, in collaboration with AIIMS Jodhpur, is developing flexible, low‑power wearable semiconductor patches that can enable early detection of serious diseases—including cancer—and continuous health monitoring. The soft, skin‑conforming sensors aim to bring non‑invasive, real‑time diagnostics to clinics, rural areas, and even defence app
The Delhi government has entered a six‑month collaboration with IIT Madras to study whether photocatalytic “smog‑eating” coatings on roads, pavements, and other city infrastructure can meaningfully reduce key air pollutants such as nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The project, led by Professor Somnath C Roy of IIT Madras, will begin with lab‑based smog simulations followed by field trials in Delhi, aiming to assess whether such coatings can become a scalable, science‑driven tool in the Capital’s fight against air pollution.
Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology (IIIT), Delhi, has secured a patent for a next‑generation smart radio system based on Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS), paving the way for robust 6G‑ready wireless connectivity in complex urban and indoor environments.
IIIT-Allahabad researchers are building a semantic communication system that lets autonomous vehicles “understand” road information, making responses faster, safer, and more context-aware than traditional data-heavy methods.
Led by Prof. Jayanarayanan Kuttippurath and his team at the Centre for Ocean, River, Atmosphere and Land Sciences (CORAL), the research highlights the vulnerability of wheat, rice, and maize – India’s and the world’s primary food grains – to rising ozone levels.
Jharkhand’s government plans three glass bridges in Netarhat and Patratu, with IIT Kanpur testing glass quality to ensure safety and boost tourism and local employment.
Mandatory CSR spending in India is linked to a higher cost of equity, as investors view it as compliance cost rather than strategic investment, a new IIM Lucknow study finds.
IIIT-Bangalore’s webcam-based eye-tracker detects survey fatigue, replacing ₹50 lakh hardware. Prof. Nair’s ML innovation enhances public health data quality. NIMHANS pilot planned.
The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur and the Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) Una have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to boost joint research, innovation, and academic synergy. This partnership spans joint research projects, startup ecosystem growth, training programs, lab infrastructure development, and shared educational resources. Faculty and students from both institutes…
