 This new form of matter could have really exciting potential applications in fusion energy. And it would essentially bring fusion energy to practical commercialization within five years. My name is Arun Johnson. I am a student at the University of California Berkeley and I'm an Emergent Ventures grantee. The EV grant that I have at the moment is specifically designated to be not a particular project but rather a slush fund for a number of projects that I wanna work on in chemistry and physics. The one project that I'm focusing on right now is trying to replicate an experiment done by a group in Sweden that has described a new form of matter. And they have shown evidence that this new form of matter could have really exciting potential applications in fusion energy. What I'm trying to do is to replicate some of their experiments along with a group in Iceland to see if the material really does have all the properties that they believe it to have. Relating to the specific EV project that I'm working on right now, the optimistic scenario for it is that we're able to confirm everything that this group has laid out, able to scale up the synthesis of the material that they've created and it would essentially bring fusion energy to practical commercialization within five years. That's a very optimistic scenario. I hope it happens. Outside of that, where I'd like to see myself in five years is working to solve climate change in some way, but I deliberately don't want to be too specific about that because describing a specific idea of a path I want to take feels like a sort of commitment to me. I want to leave that open for now.
