- HPI-MIT design research collaboration creates powerful teamsTogether, the Hasso Plattner Institute and MIT are working toward novel solutions to the world’s problems as part of the Designing for Sustainability research program.
- MIT conductive concrete consortium cements five-year research agreement with Japanese industryThe MIT EC^3 Hub, an outgrowth of the MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub, will develop multifunctional concrete applications for infrastructure.
- Physicists arrange atoms in extremely close proximityThe technique opens possibilities for exploring exotic states of matter and building new quantum materials.
- Epigenomic analysis sheds light on risk factors for ALSIn a study of cells from nearly 400 ALS patients, researchers identified genomic regions with chemical modifications linked to disease progression.
- Fostering research, careers, and community in materials scienceMICRO internship program expands, brings undergraduate interns from other schools to campus.
- Natural language boosts LLM performance in coding, planning, and roboticsThree neurosymbolic methods help language models find better abstractions within natural language, then use those representations to execute complex tasks.
- Science communication competition brings research into the real world“We need more scientists who can explain their work clearly, explain science to the public, and help us build a science-literate world.”
- To understand cognition — and its dysfunction — neuroscientists must learn its rhythmsA new framework describes how thought arises from the coordination of neural activity driven by oscillating electric fields — a.k.a. brain “waves” or “rhythms.”
- An AI dataset carves new paths to tornado detectionTorNet, a public artificial intelligence dataset, could help models reveal when and why tornadoes form, improving forecasters' ability to issue warnings.
- Two MIT teams selected for NSF sustainable materials grantsThe MIT-led projects will investigate novel high-performance designs, materials, processes, and assessment methods for an environmentally sustainable microchip industry.
