The advance could help make 3D printing more sustainable, enabling printing with renewable or recyclable materials that are difficult to characterize.

The low-cost hardware outperforms state-of-the-art versions and could someday enable an affordable, in-home device for health monitoring.

The majority of U.S. jobs are in occupations that have emerged since 1940, MIT research finds — telling us much about the ways jobs are created and lost.

Combing through 35,000 job categories in U.S. census data, economists found a new way to quantify technology’s effects on job loss and creation.

New research by a team of MIT engineers offers a guide for fine-tuning specific material properties.

Extractive industries threaten water, glaciers, and livelihoods, but new research offers hope.

In field tests, MIT spinoff AgZen demonstrated that its feedback-optimized spraying system could halve the pesticide needs of farms and improve crop yields.

The effects of AI’s growth on global security could be difficult to predict.

The printed solenoids could enable electronics that cost less and are easier to manufacture — on Earth or in space.
