Programmatic strategies address prediction and engineering challenges in superconductivity, indicating pathways for innovation.

The aim is to identify and overcome significant challenges in achieving room-temperature superconductivity.
Outlined two main challenges: Prediction Challenge and Engineering Challenge.
Proposed high-throughput ab initio and thermodynamic modeling.
Explored the effects of various parameters like pressure and nanostructuring.
Predicted materials for superconductivity remain largely untested in labs.
Characterization of six common 'knobs' for engineering superconductivity identified.
Integration of theory and experimental feedback is crucial for progress.

Prasankumar et al. (2026) studied this question.
