Building a National AI Research Resource: A Blueprint for the National Research Cloud
Stanford HAI white paper proposing a National AI Research Resource (NAIRR) — a shared computing and data infrastructure for academic AI research to counterbalance the concentration of AI capabilities in a handful of private companies. The blueprint that shaped the eventual NAIRR pilot launched by the NSF in 2024.
Biological Computer: Stanford's Genetic Transistors Turn Cells into Computers
Stanford researchers created genetic transistors that turn living cells into biological computers — RNA-based logic gates that implement Boolean operations inside E. coli. A 2013 milestone in synthetic biology demonstrating programmable cellular computation.
Magnetic Logic Makes for Mutable Chips
Nature News coverage of nanomagnetic logic — chips whose computational pathways can be reprogrammed by flipping magnetic domains rather than redesigning silicon. A 2013 snapshot of early research into non-volatile, reconfigurable computing hardware.
