Medicine
Medical diagnostics
Georgia Tech is developing portable diagnostic platforms—from electrical immunoassays to smartphone spectrometers—that enable rapid, low-cost detection of tuberculosis, COVID-19, and cancer biomarkers at the point of care. Complementing these devices, AI-driven computational pathology, radiomics, and wearable ECG analytics turn raw clinical data into actionable predictions for cardiovascular risk, immunotherapy response, and neurodegenerative disease. Together, this convergence of hardware and intelligent software targets major commercial opportunities in decentralized testing, remote patient monitoring, and precision medicine.Industrial materials
Electronic materials
Georgia Tech researchers are developing ferroelectric memory devices, 3D-integrated CMOS, and glass-interposer packaging to solve the memory-wall and thermal bottlenecks limiting AI and high-performance processors. They are also pioneering scalable printed and flexible electronics—from paper-based microcircuits to additively manufactured 5G/mm-wave components—that lower costs for IoT and wearable markets. These hardware advances are supported by engineered high-κ dielectrics, wide-bandgap semiconductors, and thermally conductive polymer composites that enhance reliability and efficiency in advanced RF, power, and packaging applications.Relevant Innovators

Energy storage systems
Georgia Tech scientists are developing solid-state lithium and zinc-ion batteries with dendrite-suppressing interfaces and fast-charging niobium oxide anodes to power wearables and electric mobility. They are also advancing salt-hydrate thermochemical storage and high-temperature particle media to capture and dispatch solar thermal energy for buildings and grid applications. Complemented by AI-driven optimization of long-duration battery siting and solar-plus-storage integration, the research targets commercial scalability across portable electronics, renewable power, and next-generation mobility.Relevant Innovators
Digital & computing technologies
Artificial intelligence & machine learning
Georgia Tech researchers are optimizing AI from silicon to systems, delivering direct Apple Neural Engine toolchains, 3D memory accelerators for mixture-of-experts models, and chunked-prefill strategies that slash large language model serving costs. Their applied work translates these efficiencies into vertical solutions—including real-time cardiac event detection from ECGs, vision-language robotic controllers, and AI tutors that diagnose student knowledge gaps—to serve healthcare, automation, and education markets. By combining hardware-software co-design with safeguards against model theft and hallucinations, the research meets industry demand for scalable, trustworthy AI infrastructure.Relevant Innovators

Cybersecurity & data protection
Georgia Tech researchers develop voice-fraud and deepfake detection, malware and threat analytics, and adversarial-ML defenses that harden AI systems and financial, telecom, and enterprise networks against evolving attacks. This work has produced a run of commercial exits — Pindrop (phone-fraud detection, $232M+ raised), Damballa (acquired by Core Security), and Purewire (acquired by Barracuda) — alongside an Intel-funded machine-learning cybersecurity center and a research partnership with Resecurity. For partners in banking, telecom, and cloud services, these teams offer direct access to production-grade detection technology and live threat intelligence.Relevant Innovators
