"smaller more powerful and energy efficient technologies... improving MRI scans which could lead to earlier detection of diseases like cancer. These materials can also be used for sensors, carbon capture and storage, hydrogen fuel cells, and as actuators, which can turn electricity into movement, which would be useful for robots... at or above room temperature"
