Ask Us Anything – Hod Lipson

Hod Lipson is the James and Sally Scapa Professor of Innovation in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. He is a roboticist who works in the areas of artificial intelligence and digital manufacturing, designing and building robots with his students that do what you’d least expect robots to do: Self replicate, self-reflect, ask questions, and even be creative.

This series showcases our faculty on lab life and the big picture implications beyond. Whether building predictive climate models, thin-film electronics, or sustainable concrete, our engineers are not only making an impact in their fields — they are changing the world at large.
