On view in the Hayden Library Loft (Floor 1M) May 12 - September 30, 2025Throughout her life, Katharine Dexter McCormick widened the horizons of what was possible for women. A suffragist, philanthropist, and scientist, she broke boundaries from an early age, becoming one of the first women to graduate from MIT. She later went on to fund McCormick Hall, the first on-campus dormitory for women at MIT. Learn more about the exhibit

February 26, 2025 - September 4, 2025Hidden within MIT’s Distinctive Collections, many architectural elements from the earliest days of the Institute’s architecture program still survive as part of the Rotch Art Collection. Among the artworks that conservators salvaged was a set of striking windows of gypsum and stained-glass, dating to the late 18th- to 19th c. Ottoman Empire. This exhibition illuminates the life of these historic windows, tracing their refracted histories from Egypt to MIT, their ongoing conservation, and the cutting-edge research they still prompt.The Maihaugen Gallery (14N-130) is open Monday through Thursday, 10am - 4pm, excluding Institute holidays.

This yoga practice provides the opportunity to relax and de-stress as well as to stretch, strengthen, and balance your body. The practice begins with a meditative centering followed by warm-ups, a posture flow, and a restful final relaxation. We conclude with a closing and some time for connecting with your fellow yogis.The yoga postures are led at a moderate intensity. Lower intensity modifications are always offered and there is absolutely no obligation to do any posture. The goal is to make the class accessible to beginners as well as experienced practitioners. Listening to your body is the key to safety, especially in this online format.Registration is required on our wellness class website. If you do not already have an account on this website, you'll need to create one. This is fee-based class and open to the entire MIT community.

MIT Sounding and MIT Music & Theater Arts Present Terry Riley 90th Birthday: In C at MIT Evan Ziporyn, Ambient Orchestra & Friends Thomas Tull Concert HallCelebrate Terry Riley’s 90th birthday with a powerful communal performance of his minimalist masterpiece In C, brought to life by Evan Ziporyn, Gamelan Galak Tika, Ambient Orchestra, and a wide constellation of Boston-area musicians. Held in MIT’s stunning new performance hall, this event honors Riley’s groundbreaking influence and the unifying power of pulse, pattern, and collective sound. Join us for an unforgettable evening of musical energy, spontaneity, and joyful connection.Interesting in participating? In C was made to be shared!

7:00 PM, Tuesday, 24 June 2025MIT Room 32-G449 (Kiva) and online via ZoomBoltz: Towards a Unified Approach for Biomolecular Interaction ModelingGabriele Corso and Jeremy WohlwendPlease register in advance for this seminar even if you plan to attend in person athttps://acm-org.zoom.us/webinar/register/3917463193515/WN_U1yhFblMQO-I4n1cBhkBFwAfter registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.Indicate on the registration form if you plan to attend in person. This will help us determine whether the room is close to reaching capacity. We plan to serve light refreshments (probably pizza) before the talk starting at around 6:30 pm. Letting us know you will come in person will help us determine how much pizza to order.We may make some auxiliary material such as slides and access to the recording available after the seminar to people who have registered.Abstract:Understanding biomolecular interactions is fundamental to advancing fields like drug discovery and protein design. In this talk, we introduce Boltz-1, an open-source deep learning model incorporating innovations in model architecture, speed optimization, and data processing achieving AlphaFold3-level accuracy in predicting the 3D structures of biomolecular complexes. Boltz-1 demonstrates a performance on-par with state-of-the-art commercial models on a range of diverse benchmarks, setting a new benchmark for commercially accessible tools in structural biology. By releasing the training and inference code, model weights, datasets, and benchmarks under the MIT open license, we aim to foster global collaboration, accelerate discoveries, and provide a robust platform for advancing biomolecular modeling.Bio:Jeremy Wohlwend and Gabriele Corso are PhD students at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory where their research focuses on developing novel ML frameworks to tackle challenging problems in drug discovery and immunology.Directions to 32-G449 - MIT Stata Center, 32 Vassar Street, Cambridge, MA: Please use the main entrance to the Stata Center at 32 Vassar Street (the entrance closest to Main street) as those doors will be unlocked. Upon entering, proceed to the elevators which will be on the right after passing a large set of stairs and a MITAC kiosk.
