The magnetic state offers a new route to “spintronic” memory devices that would be faster and more efficient than their electronic counterparts.

MIT engineers developed a technique for making intricate structures with supports that can be dissolved and reused instead of thrown away.

The method’s overall carbon emissions are on par with those of other green hydrogen technologies.

Researchers redesign a compact RNA-guided enzyme from bacteria, making it an efficient editor of human DNA.

Universities have long been credited for research that advances science and propels technological progress. But their role in the innovation economy goes far beyond knowledge discovery. What’s often overlooked is how powerfully they shape the pipeline of inventors — training the individuals who translate research into patents, products, and companies.
