Killing Cancer One new weapon against cancer is a type of engineered immune cell known as CAR-NK cells, which can be tuned to attack cancer cells. Now, MIT researchers have come up with a new way to make CAR-NK cells less likely to be rejected by a patient’s immune system.

Boston 25 highlights that MIT is “need-blind and full-need for undergraduate students. Six out of 10 students receive financial aid, and almost 88% of the Class of 2025 graduated debt-free.”  Full story via Boston 25→ Nano Day October 9 is National Nanotechnology Day — the day that celebrates the world at the scale of a nanometer, 10^-9 or one-billionth of a meter, and shines a light on the potential of nanoscale discoveries and innovations to help solve some of society’s biggest challenges. This 10/9, MIT.nano has unveiled a collection of nanoStories, brief snippets that tell how everyday experiences are shaped by what happens when things get really (really) small. Based on writings by MIT students, the nanoStories provide a fascinating peek into life at the nanoscale, from medicines to gecko feet to tiny transistors to your morning drink.
