| Heart Patch | | | | | | | | MIT engineers have developed a flexible drug-delivery patch that can be placed on the heart after a heart attack to promote healing and regeneration of cardiac tissue. The patch is designed to carry several drugs that can be released at different times. | | | | A faster problem-solving tool that guarantees feasibility The FSNet system, developed at MIT, could help power grid operators rapidly find feasible solutions for optimizing the flow of electricity. |  | | | | | | | MIT study finds targets for a new tuberculosis vaccine Using these antigens, researchers plan to develop vaccine candidates that they hope would stimulate a strong immune response against the world’s deadliest pathogen. |  | | | | | | | MIT physicists observe key evidence of unconventional superconductivity in magic-angle graphene The findings could open a route to new forms of higher-temperature superconductors. |  | | | | | | | New nanoparticles stimulate the immune system to attack ovarian tumors Targeted particles carrying the cytokine IL-12 can jump-start T cells, allowing them to clear tumors while avoiding side effects. |  | | | | | | | Helping K-12 schools navigate the complex world of AI MIT’s Teaching Systems Lab, led by Associate Professor Justin Reich, is working to help educators by listening to and sharing their stories. |  | | | | | | | 25 years of research in space MIT astronauts aboard the International Space Station — and the MIT researchers who have sent up experiments — have advanced our understanding of science, space, and the universe. |  | | | | | | | Can’t focus after a bad night’s sleep? Your dirty brain is to blame // New Scientist Associate Professor Laura Lewis and her colleagues have discovered that momentary lapses in attention that often follow a bad night’s sleep are caused by the brain attempting to flush fluid out of its system, a process that normally occurs during sleep. | | | | | | | Cybersecurity experts warn ChatGPT Atlas is vulnerable to attacks that could turn it against a user — revealing sensitive data, downloading malware, or worse // Fortune Professor Srini Devadas discusses data and privacy concerns surrounding AI assistants. | | | | | | | Endometriosis is common. Why is getting diagnosed so hard? // Science Friday Professor Linda Griffith discusses her work studying endometriosis. “I did a lot of things in the regenerative medicine space, but I had an epiphany that there’s so many chronic and inflammatory disease that we don’t know how to treat,” Griffith explains. | | | | | | | How this MIT scientist is rewiring robots to keep the humanity in tech // Forbes Forbes reporter Gemma Allen spotlights Professor Daniela Rus, director of CSAIL, and her work bringing “empathy into engineering and proving that responsibility is as radical and as commercially attractive as unguarded innovation.” | | | | | | | | | | The MIT Graduate Program in Science Writing is a one-year master’s program in science journalism and communication. Offered by the MIT School of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences, this program gives students the opportunity to learn fundamental research and reporting skills, either at MIT or at an area of interest anywhere across the globe. “I’ve gotten to experience what it’s like to be a part of a newsroom. And that has just absolutely broadened my understanding of what it is to do journalism and also allowed me to make more informed decisions about the career I want,” says Anika Jane Beamer SM ’25, a recent graduate of the program. | | | | | | Did you spot this giant dino on campus? The Priscilla King Gray (PKG) Public Service Center’s Vote-a-Saurus made an appearance on Tuesday during Election Day in front of the Stratton Student Center (Building W20). The PKG Center has been encouraging members of the MIT community — including students, faculty, and staff — to register to vote and learn more about voting in national and local elections. | | | Verse | | | Besides the autumn poets sing, A few prosaic days A little this side of the snow And that side of the haze. A few incisive mornings, A few ascetic eyes, -- Gone Mr. Bryant’s golden-rod, And Mr. Thomson’s sheaves. Still is the bustle in the brook, Sealed are the spicy valves; Mesmeric fingers softly touch The eyes of many elves. Perhaps a squirrel may remain, My sentiments to share. Grant me, O Lord, a sunny mind, Thy windy will to bear! —“November” by Emily Dickinson | | |
