Researchers have received a grant to develop stronger magnets using feasible materials. The grant, nearly $3 million, is from the Department of Energy. This project is part of an effort to invest in rare Earth magnets domestically.

The goal is to reduce reliance on foreign territories that mine these materials, such as China. Professors from the University of Houston and Rice are working together on this project, utilizing artificial intelligence to build better magnets. Further details about the project and its objectives are available from the source.

The grant is a significant investment in domestic magnet development, aiming to create a stronger magnet with available materials.
