Materials genome
}}
Materials genome is an analogy to
genomes in biology, but in a conceptual sense: the many important phases, defects, and processes that make up engineered materials are the "genome" of
materials science. The Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) is a federal, multi-agency effort to design, manufacture, and deploy materials and materials-based technologies significantly faster and cheaper than ever before. The MGI partially references the
Human Genome Project, but only conceptually, and is a broader and less targeted effort.
