Meet Jose Manuel Padilla, a first-gen Husky who went from taking apart toys with his dad’s screwdriver to being the “Reachy Wrangler” in the Human-Robot Interaction Lab.
While some labs have a strict “don’t touch” policy, Dr. Michael Walker’s lab is the opposite, encouraging students to dive right in. Jose started working with Reachy the Robot as a first-year student, and now he’s helping grad students master the tech.
By focusing on human-centered robotics, Jose is dreaming up ways to use VR and robots to make his dad’s job as a forklift driver safer.
Thinking about robotics? At #MichiganTech, you don’t have to wait for a PhD. You can start changing the world today.

Michigan Tech’s Amy Marcarelli in the principal investigator on the BioLogical Undersea Energy (BLUE) project. The program’s focus is on developing a self-refueling power supply system that could capture and convert microscopic forms of marine biomass into electrical power.
“The basic idea is that microbes move electrons around during their metabolic processes. In a microbial fuel cell, those processes transfer electrons from an anode to a cathode, creating an electrical current we can harness,” said Marcarelli, a distinguished professor of biological sciences at #MichiganTech.
Marcarelli is joined by an all-star lineup from several other institutions and departments:
🧑🔬 “The amount of energy that you can extract out of any MFC is pretty small and restricted by the voltage of these systems. So we have to maximize current, which is a key component of power production.”—Jennifer Becker, Michigan Tech associate professor of civil, environmental, and geospatial engineering with an affiliation in biological sciences.
📊 “We’re using data to understand where in the world’s coastal ocean environment these types of devices could be deployed and successfully generate the power output that the end user would ultimately want.”—Michael Sayers, Michigan Tech Research Institute’s chief research scientist
🪸 “There’s a big part of this that is the survivability of these systems in the ocean. Our system is a combination of custom-machined and off-the-shelf components. In the end, we need to keep seawater out and keep them happy, dry, and functioning.”—Jamey Anderson, assistant director of marine operations at
Additional co-PIs are Steve Techtmann, professor at, Mario Tamburri, professor at the, and Juliana D’Andrilli, associate professor at the.
