- A protein from tiny tardigrades may help cancer patients tolerate radiation therapyWhen scientists stimulated cells to produce a protein that helps “water bears” survive extreme environments, the tissue showed much less DNA damage after radiation treatment.
- High-speed videos show what happens when a droplet splashes into a poolFindings may help predict how rain and irrigation systems launch particles and pathogens from watery surfaces, with implications for industry, agriculture, and public health.
- MIT biologists discover a new type of control over RNA splicingThey identified proteins that influence splicing of about half of all human introns, allowing for more complex types of gene regulation.
- Rooftop panels, EV chargers, and smart thermostats could chip in to boost power grid resilienceMIT engineers propose a new “local electricity market” to tap into the power potential of homeowners’ grid-edge devices.
- Chip-based system for terahertz waves could enable more efficient, sensitive electronicsResearchers developed a scalable, low-cost device that can generate high-power terahertz waves on a chip, without bulky silicon lenses.
- Like human brains, large language models reason about diverse data in a general wayA new study shows LLMs represent different data types based on their underlying meaning and reason about data in their dominant language.
