MIT engineers developed a battery-free, solar-powered desalination system that adapts to sunlight changes and can produce 5,000 liters of clean water daily.

Two Massachusetts professors won the Nobel Prize in medicine for their groundbreaking discovery of microRNA, advancing genetics and disease treatment.

MIT researchers found that the cancer drug 5-FU works by interfering with RNA, not DNA synthesis, as was long believed, particularly in gastrointestinal cancers.

UMass Amherst's Professor Alexandra Pope leads a NASA-selected team to develop the PRIMA space mission, aimed at studying unexplored cosmic wavelengths and advancing our understanding of the universe's evolution.

MIT's CSAIL has developed an AI-based simulation improvement for various fields using smarter low-discrepancy sampling techniques, enhancing accuracy with GNNs.

MIT researchers have developed a silicon-based "tractor beam" on a chip that manipulates biological particles such as DNA and cells remotely, which could revolutionize experiments and disease diagnostics.

NASA's Voyager 2 has turned off its PLS instrument to save energy after 47 years in space, with MIT reflecting on the mission's discoveries and its future scientific goals.

MIT researchers have introduced 'Future You,' an AI that lets people converse with their projected future selves to improve long-term decision-making.

MIT engineers developed a robotic technology called Clio that helps robots focus and interact more efficiently with their environment by filtering out unnecessary visual information.

MIT economist Jacob Moscona's study finds that how money is shared within East African communities—either kin-based or age-based—impacts local economies and child nutrition.

MIT researchers have developed a quantum security protocol for protecting data during cloud-based deep-learning computations, which encodes information in laser light, preventing breaches during transmission.

Jonathan Losos presented findings on cat vocalizations, suggesting domestic cats meow in a way that appeals more to humans, evolving from wild calls into manipulative communication.

MIT researchers have developed a light technique that speeds up particle size monitoring in drug manufacturing by 60 times, reducing process times from 15 seconds to a quarter-second.
