Riccardo Comin, two MIT alumni named 2025 Moore Experimental Physics Investigators

MIT physicist seeks to use award to study magnetoelectric multiferroics that could lead to energy-efficient storage devices.

October 8, 2025

Printable aluminum alloy sets strength records, may enable lighter aircraft parts

Incorporating machine learning, MIT engineers developed a way to 3D print alloys that are much stronger than conventionally manufactured versions.

October 7, 2025

Chemists create red fluorescent dyes that may enable clearer biomedical imaging

The new dyes are based on boron-containing molecules that were previously too unstable for practical use.
