An MIT team precisely controlled an ultrathin magnet at room temperature, which could enable faster, more efficient processors and computer memories. Experimental computer memories and…
Using a machine-learning algorithm, researchers can predict interactions that could interfere with a drug’s effectiveness. Any drug that is taken orally must pass through the…
Dermatologists and general practitioners are somewhat less accurate in diagnosing disease in darker skin, a new study finds. Used correctly, AI may be able to…
A new microscopy technique that enables high-resolution imaging could one day help doctors diagnose and treat brain tumors. Using a novel microscopy technique, MIT and…
The printed solenoids could enable electronics that cost less and are easier to manufacture — on Earth or in space. Imagine being able to build…
A new study finds precancerous colon cells turn on a gene called SOX17, which helps them evade detection and develop into more advanced tumors. One…
MIT’s breakthrough in integrating 2D materials into devices paves the way for next-generation devices with unique optical and electronic properties. Two-dimensional materials, which are only…
Lightmatter, founded by three MIT alumni, is using photonic technologies to reinvent how chips communicate and calculate. Our ability to cram ever-smaller transistors onto a…
MIT engineers developed a tag that can reveal with near-perfect accuracy whether an item is real or fake. The key is in the glue on…
MIT geologists unlock the orientation of Martian rocks collected by NASA’s Perseverance rover. The “oriented” samples, the first of their kind from any planet, could…
Detailed study of high-temperature superconducting magnets built by MIT and Commonwealth Fusion Systems confirms they meet requirements for an economic, compact fusion power plant. In…
Study finds chiral structures, with mirror-image configurations, can emerge from nonchiral systems, suggesting new ways to engineer these materials. Hold your hands out in front…
MIT spinout DataCebo helps companies bolster their datasets by creating synthetic data that mimic the real thing. Generative AI is getting plenty of attention for…
The diagnostic, which requires only a simple urine test to read the results, could make lung cancer screening more accessible worldwide. Using a new technology…
Colon cancer screening significantly lowers the incidence rate by about 0.5 percentage points, double the previously estimated effect, according to new research analyzing trial data…
A study of people in 15 countries reveals that while everyone favors rhythms with simple integer ratios, biases can vary quite a bit across societies….
By breaking an intractable problem into smaller chunks, a deep-learning technique identifies the optimal areas for thinning out traffic in a warehouse. Hundreds of robots…
