Comic-tanium™: Materials Superheroes
Often, when comic book heroes face seemingly insurmountable problems, they gain an advantage by teaming up with other superheroes and combining their unique superpowers. A similar approach can be applied to science and engineering problems. In fact, the minerals, metals, and materials workforce needs professionals from a wide variety of backgrounds to contribute their unique viewpoints and approaches to solve complex problems. We’ve gathered a collection of these individuals in a section we call the League of Materials Superheroes, which describes how they are contributing to making our world a better place.
