- Capturing cell growth in 3-D - MIT News
MIT spinout AIM Biotech has developed a microfluidics device that lets researchers co-culture multiple cell types in a 3-D hydrogel environment that mimics natural tissue, to more accurately study biological processes, such as cancer metastasis, and better capture how cancer cells react to chemotherapy agents
- Imaging technique removes the effect of water in underwater scenes . . .
In recent years, researchers have developed color-correcting tools that aim to reproduce the true colors in the ocean These efforts involved adapting tools that were developed originally for environments out of water, for instance to reveal the true color of features in foggy conditions
- Introducing the MIT Generative AI Impact Consortium
The MIT Generative AI Impact Consortium is a collaboration between MIT, founding member companies, and researchers across disciplines who aim to develop open-source generative AI solutions, accelerating innovations in education, research, and industry
- Clip Financial Times New tools aim for nuanced analysis of academic . . .
Financial Times reporter Seb Murray highlights a new paper by Prof Roberto Rigobon and Research Scientist Florian Berg that explores why different ESG ratings can paint different pictures of the same company, finding that “measurement differences between rating agencies are the main source of divergence ” Murray notes that “by exposing these inconsistencies, the research highlights the
- New control system teaches soft robots the art of staying safe
Unlike traditional rigid robots that generally aim to avoid contact with the environment as much as possible and stay far away from humans for safety reasons, this arm senses subtle forces, stretching and flexing in ways that mimic more of the compliance of a human hand
- Scientists discover potential new targets for Alzheimer’s drugs
Using a computational strategy that allows them to combine information from many large datasets, MIT researchers have identified several new potential targets for Alzheimer’s disease
- Artificial intelligence enhances air mobility planning
Other tools under development aim to automatically add users to chat conversations deemed relevant to their expertise, predict the amount of ground time needed to unload specific types of cargo from aircraft, and summarize key processes from regulatory documents as a guide to operators as they develop mission plans
- Boosting rocket reliability at the material level - MIT News
The Cordero Lab, based in the MIT Aerospace Materials and Structures Laboratory, has accepted this challenge with a variety of projects that aim to solve the reliability problem at the materials level
