"Priority 2030": Moscow Polytechnic University Researchers Develop New Materials for Energy and Biomedicine
A research team at Moscow Polytechnic University, led by Dmitry Kolesov, Ph.D. in Physical and Mathematical Sciences, has completed a project studying the electrochemical and morphological properties of novel materials to improve the efficiency of energy storage systems and biomedical devices.
Dmitry Kolesov was awarded the Pyotr Kapitsa Grant for this research as a winner of a competition held at the University under the "Priority 2030" strategic academic leadership program. He presented the results of his three-year study in August 2025 at the competition's award ceremony.
The project included the development of a unique scanning electrochemical microscope with sub-micron resolution, enabling the observation of corrosion processes and material morphology changes with the highest precision.
Particular emphasis was placed on developing carbon electrodes for biosensors and magnesium-based materials for prosthetics, which promises a significant breakthrough in medicine and diagnostics.
As part of the project activities, students developed microfluidic chips and specialized equipment for biomedical applications.
