MIT researchers developed a handheld system that gently collects living cells from patient samples to aid cancer testing and development of personalized medicines.

Made from “bioresorbable” materials, the new batteries could power capsules for drug delivery, sensing, and other applications.

Tracking down senescent cells, which accumulate as we age, could help diagnose age-related disorders and guide researchers working on new treatments.

Novel research expands scientific understanding of how RNA shapes the reading of genetic information.

PhD candidate Lanie McKinney is building technology to convert the Red Planet’s atmosphere into propellant for bringing astronauts home.

The autonomous system could speed up testing of high-tech materials for applications such as solar cells, sensors, video displays, and quantum technologies.
