Economist Patrick Turley of USC Dornsife and a multinational group of researchers issue a special report that examines the benefits, risks, and ethics of selecting embryos to ensure healthier, smarter children
University Research | University of Southern California | University of California, Los Angeles | Harvard University | Massachusetts Institute of Technology | New York UniversityResearchers at Tulane University, Harvard University, MIT, and Massachusetts General Hospital have learned that obesity, age and COVID-19 infection correlate with a propensity to breathe out more respiratory droplets — key spreaders of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.
University Research | Confronting COVID-19 | Tulane University | Harvard University | Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyUniversity of Oregon chemists analyzing a new porous material synthesized by a research group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have discovered that electrical charges flow through it in an unexpected but potentially advantageous way.
University Research | University of Oregon | Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyA team of scientists at Stony Brook University, Caltech, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology has found a way for the first time to detect multiple tones of a black hole ringing like a bell — something that most astrophysicists thought would not be possible for a decade or more.
University Research | Stony Brook University - The State University of New York | California Institute of Technology | Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyPrimitive ponds may have provided a suitable environment for brewing up Earth’s first life forms, more so than oceans, a new MIT study finds.
University Research | Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyIn an advance that could accelerate battery development and improve manufacturing, Stanford scientists have found how to accurately predict the useful lifespan of lithium-ion batteries, used in devices from mobile phones to electric cars.
University Research | Stanford University | Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyMIT’s new mini cheetah robot is springy and light on its feet, with a range of motion that rivals a champion gymnast.
University Research | Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyAn MIT-led research team has developed a drug capsule that could be used to deliver oral doses of insulin, potentially replacing the injections that people with type 2 diabetes have to give themselves every day.
University Research | Massachusetts Institute of Technology | Harvard UniversityA team of investigators has pioneered a new approach that brings closer to the clinic an oral formulation of insulin that can be swallowed rather than injected.
University Research | Harvard University | Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyMIT engineers have developed a robot to play a slow-moving, yet surprisingly agile game of Jenga. Machine-learning approach could help robots assemble cellphones and other small parts in a manufacturing line.
