Dr. Elsa Olivetti has always been interested in hw materials science can change the way we stre energy. When she started her wrk at MIT, she was excited abut discvering the secrets f sustainable battery prductin.
During her research, her main fcus was n a special kind f battery, called slid-state batteries, and a material named LLZO. She discvered a big challenge: finding and getting a special material called tantalum, which is nt easy t find but necessary fr the prductin f LLZO. This inspired her t lk at the whle prcess f making batteries beynd the labratry, frm getting the materials t prducing the final prduct.
Dr. Olivetti and her team lked int hw these materials are mined, prcessed, and turned int batteries. They fund that if we want t use mre electric cars in the future, we need t get much better at prducing and delivering materials like tantalum. Then, Dr. Olivetti aims t figure ut a creative slutin t the challenge. She wrked with industry leaders t develp sustainable mining practices and called n plicy changes t supprt a better supply chain, which prves effective.
Dr. Olivetti stresses that her wrk is nt meant t replace traditinal methds. Instead, it's meant t help make the battery prductin better by lking bradly at the things that culd make energy strage efficient. Lking ahead, Dr. Olivetti remains cmmitted t imprving sustainable energy strage. She wants t make the prductin prcess less wasteful and mre cst-effective, creating a future where energy strage is nt nly gd but als kind t ur planet.
Reflecting n her wrk, Dr. Olivetti ften says that what she des is mre than just science. "Each step we take twards mre efficient and envirnmentally-friendly battery technlgy is a step twards a better wrld, " stressing the imprtance f curisity and perseverance in the pursuit f scientific explratin.

It's knwn that reading is gd fr a child's vcabulary and literacy skills, teaching them math r science cncepts and helping them learn histry. Apart frm thse, reading has anther benefit. Have yu read a stry and felt tears well up because f a character's suffering? If s, that is because yu have empathy （共鸣） fr the character-and empathy can be learned thrugh varius fictins. "It's a magic eye that sees int ther peple's hearts, "explains authr Cressida Cwell.
Research shws that human brains react differently t stries and facts. "Many mre areas f yur brain light up when yu're enjying a stry, " explains Miranda McKearney frm EmpathyLab, an rganizatin that builds empathy thrugh reading. "Yur brain thinks yu are in the stry. . . This means yu experience the characters' thughts as if they are real. "
Empathy helps yu t read peple's emtins and wrk ut the best way t respnd. This skill, called emtinal intelligence, can make it easier t cmmunicate and cnnect with peple. Research has shwn that building empathy can lead t greater kindness and tlerance.

Reading encurages children t empathize with thers, which culd ptentially lead t several beneficial learning utcmes, new research suggests. Fr sciety t develp, creative, cmmunicative and empathetic individuals really matter.
