| Student and Teacher | | | | | | | | Formerly “that quiet kid,” EECS master’s student Titus Roesler ’25 has built a reputation as an award-winning student teacher and mentor. “I don’t know that anyone who knew me pre-MIT would believe that I do things like give recitations to crowded rooms,” he says. | | | | A new system can dial expression of synthetic genes up or down The promoter editing system could be used to fine-tune gene therapy or to more efficiently reprogram cells for therapeutic use. |  | | | | | | | Flexible data centers can reduce costs — if not emissions Data centers that shift workload to different times of day save money, but the environmental impact depends on the local grid. |  | | | | | | | How artificial intelligence impacts the US labor market New research from MIT Sloan shows that companies can see substantial gains by putting AI to work — with that growth translating into jobs. |  | | | | | | | Five with MIT ties elected to National Academy of Medicine for 2025 Professors Facundo Batista and Dina Katabi, along with three additional MIT alumni, are honored for their outstanding professional achievement and commitment to service. |  | | | | | | | The brain power behind sustainable AI PhD student Miranda Schwacke explores how computing inspired by the human brain can fuel energy-efficient artificial intelligence. |  | | | | | | | A new advising neighborhood takes shape along the Infinite Corridor The Undergraduate Advising Center’s new home in Building 11 creates a bright, welcoming, and functional destination for MIT undergraduate students. |  | | | | | | | Americans underprepared for longer lifespans and extended retirement years, study finds // Fox Business The Longevity Preparedness Index, developed by researchers from the MIT AgeLab and John Hancock to assess how prepared people are for the experience of living longer, finds “U.S. adults are largely underprepared to live well as they age.” | | | | | | | Scientists just detected a long-lost planet “hiding” inside Earth // Gizmodo Researchers at MIT have uncovered evidence of “proto Earth,” which existed before a Mars-sized meteorite slammed into the Earth billions of years ago. | | | | | | | From qubits to climate: A conversation with Steven Chu and Peter Shor // The Quantum Kid Professor Peter Shor speaks with Katia Moskvitch and her nine-year-old son Kai of The Quantum Kid about how quantum technologies could be used to develop new sustainability solutions. | | | | | | | Here’s why auto loan delinquencies are on the rise // Marketplace Associate Professor Christopher Palmer discusses the rise in auto loan delinquencies, noting that defaulting on a car payment is usually a borrower’s last resort since people often need cars to get to work, so they’re more likely to not pay other bills first. | | | | | | | | | | In this installment of the “World at MIT” video series, Pablo Jarillo-Herrero recalls how his early educational experiences and natural curiosity led him to study physics in his home city of Valencia, Spain. Encouraged by one of his college professors, Jarillo-Herrero decided to pursue research abroad and ultimately ended up at MIT, where he is the Cecil and Ida Green Professor of Physics. “Being part of a big community that is doing interesting research and advancing the frontiers of knowledge, that’s something that’s also very stimulating and rewarding,” he says. | | Name: Nadie Brathwaite
