Ankur Gupta SM '14, PhD '17 has been named to the Chemical & Engineering News’ 2025 Talent 12 list, which highlights young scientists using chemistry to create real-world solutions, reports Sam Lemonick for Chemical & Engineering News. “By accounting for the way particles move in a chemical gradient—a phenomenon known as diffusiophoresis… [Gupta and his colleagues have] improved a model that mathematician Alan Turing developed to explain patterns in nature, such as the shape of a zebra’s stripes or the spacing of a jellyfish’s tentacles,” explains Lemonick.
