C16 Biosciences, founded by MIT alumni, has developed a microbial oil to replace palm oil, whose production reaps environmental devastation.

The results could help turn up unconventional superconducting materials.

MIT engineers’ new technology can probe the neural circuits that influence hunger, mood, and a variety of diseases.

By adding weak linkers to a polymer network, chemists dramatically enhanced the material’s resistance to tearing.

The device emits a stream of single photos at room temperature and could provide a basis for optical quantum computers.

Experts from industry, academia, government, and nonprofits explored the future of manufacturing at the second annual Manufacturing@MIT Symposium.

Award recognizes scholars who have the “extraordinary creativity necessary to tackle problems others can’t solve.”

Vicky Diadiuk ’73, ScD ’78 looks back on an impactful career at the Institute, from Lincoln Laboratory to the Microsystems Technology Laboratories to MIT.nano.

A new material developed by MIT engineers exhibits “record-breaking” vapor absorption.
