>> why isn't there more of a focus on material science? There is. A huge example of one that has a lot of crossover is battery and energy storage technology, which at its core, is material science. 3d printing is more popular now than ever before and continues to rise in popularity. SpaceX prints their SuperDraco rocket engine entirely out of Inconel [0], which is a good example of a major breakthrough in material science. The "scientists" you seek often wear welding aprons, face shields, and are creating stuff. The material science revolution is what we call the "Maker" revolution.
