We invite you to download these graphics for use in social media, newsletters, email, and other channels. We encourage you to use the tagline World-Changing Innovation Starts at Caltech.
Photoacustic Computer Tomography (PACT)
Imagine a faster, less painful, and more effective way to detect breast cancer. Decades of Caltech imaging research, powered by artificial intelligence, have led to an alternative to mammography, now being tested in hospitals.
Smart Bandage
Imagine a “smart” bandage that could help detect signs of infection and inflammation and relay that information to your doctor. This transformative innovation, invented in Caltech labs, is now being tested in clinical trials.
Space Solar Power Project (SSPP)
Imagine harnessing solar power in space and beaming a virtually unlimited supply of energy back to Earth. It may seem like science fiction, but Caltech science and engineering is making it happen.
Earthquake Monitoring and Alerts
Before you feel the Earth shake, chances are Caltech sensors have already detected the coming quake. More than a century of Caltech research powers the earthquake monitoring and early warning systems that help keep communities safe.
Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)
Before you could snap a selfie, check your car’s backup camera, or show your face in a virtual meeting, engineers at JPL, which Caltech manages for NASA, had to invent a camera small, light, and sturdy enough to perform in space. Decades of research and engineering put cameras in all of our devices.
LA Smog
Before Los Angeles could clear away its notorious smog, Caltech researchers had to uncover the chemistry behind it. Decades of curiosity-driven science is still helping us breathe cleaner air.
Transistors
Before a computer could fit on your desk—or in your pocket—Caltech scientists and engineers had to invent a way to combine millions of transistors on a single chip.
AI for nature conservation
Before you could snap a photo to identify a bird or plant, Caltech scientists created the AI that powers apps like iNaturalist.
Quantum research
Imagine a computer with the power to solve problems too complex for today's most advanced devices. Caltech research is moving us closer.
Videos
This Is Caltech is a 60-second positioning video that introduces Caltech's mission, research, and impact. You are welcome to show this video at events on and off campus, upload to social media, or embed the YouTube video on your website.
Slides
Investing in Innovation campaign slides
These 16:9 slides, featuring some of the same examples in the graphics above and directing viewers to the Investing in Innovation website, can be used at in-person and online events. They are shown before public events at auditoriums on campus.
