By monitoring these chromosomal structures over many timescales, MIT researchers found that chromatin helps bring genes closer to their regulatory elements.

Founded by Peter Godart ’15, SM ’19, PhD ’21, the company has developed technologies for extracting critical metals and making fuel out of aluminum.

Relaxor ferroelectrics have been used in electronics and sensors for decades, but the source of their unique properties was a mystery until now.

When genes are transcribed, they suppress or activate their neighbors, coupling expression between the two genes.

In almost every lab at the Institute, researchers are delving into AI. And the tools they’re developing and deploying have already turbocharged existing methods and opened new pathways to discovery.

MIT researchers leveraged a surprise discovery to devise a faster and more precise biomedical imaging technique.

Ultra-efficient chip design enables extremely strong cryptography algorithms to run on energy-constrained edge devices.
