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
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
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
How to build AI scaling laws for efficient LLM training and budget . . . When researchers are building large language models (LLMs), they aim to maximize performance under a particular computational and financial budget Since training a model can amount to millions of dollars, developers need to be judicious with cost-impacting decisions about, for instance, the model architecture, optimizers, and training datasets
Explained: The 1. 5 C climate benchmark - MIT News As more regions face extreme weather, MIT News explores the 1 5-degree benchmark for limiting the effects of climate change, including where the planet stands in relation to this threshold and what can be done at the global, regional, and personal level, to “keep 1 5 alive ”
MIT startup has big plans to pull carbon from the air Noya, a startup founded by MIT alumnus Josh Santos, has developed low-power, modular units that can be combined to create facilities for removing millions of tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
Consortium including MIT awarded $110M national grant to promote . . . MIT will also host AIM Photonics’ program in education and workforce development, which Kimerling will direct This will include developing educational materials — ranging from K-12 through continuing education — to prepare future employees for this emerging industry, including teaching on the design of integrated photonic devices
“Life is short, so aim high” - MIT News MIT professor Rafael Jaramillo seeks to develop new, more sustainable semiconductor materials His work could improve the economics and reduce the environmental footprint of semiconductors used in telecommunications, microelectronics, photovoltaics, and more
Explained: Carbon credits - MIT News Similarly, projects that aim to capture carbon dioxide emissions and inject them into the ground are sometimes used to justify increasing the production of petroleum or natural gas, negating the intended climate mitigation of the process
