Dr. Maxwell Robinson is a fellow in the System Design and Management (SDM) program at MIT. Previously, he was a postdoc in MIT’s Department of Chemical Engineering, and developed a new class of gas sensors that have significant potential for use in outdoor field detection tasks. Advised by Professor Olivier de Weck (MIT Engineering Systems) and Dr. Maha Haji (Cornell Faculty Fellow and MIT Postdoctoral Researcher), Maxwell now works to build a scalable business to perform early detection of the devastating citrus disease Huanglongbing (HLB).
