SystemX’s Focus Areas are large but focused technology challenges being adressed by teams of Stanford faculty and Ph.D. students in close cooperation with experts from the supporting member companies. Focus Areas are expected to have a 3-5 year lifespan, at which time they will be renewed, revised, or retired.
Site Visits: The site presentations and all information, data and results arising from such visitation interactions will be shared with all members and the public.
Current SystemX Focus Areas are:
Advanced Materials Enabling Novel Devices (AMEND)
