"When something is said to be impossible, there are two points for researchers to initially clarify: whether it really is forbidden by the laws of nature; or whether it is simply that no material that currently exists in nature can do that." Metamaterials are such magical beings, which have physical properties like invisibility, negative refraction, super-resolution, and perfect absorption that are absent from natural materials. It has been rated by Science as one of the top ten scientific and technological breakthroughs affecting human beings in the 21st century.

With the ever-increasing use of wireless communication technologies and cellular networks, radio frequency (RF) based attacks such as “spoofing” have become a significant concern due to the privacy and security risks in both military and civilian communication networks. Dr. Chaity Banerjee Mukherjee, an assistant professor at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of the University of Alabama System, has won a $1 million Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) grant to develop frameworks for artificial neural networks that will help combat these attacks.
