A plastic microfluidic chip can remove some risky cells that could potentially become tumors before they are implanted in a patient.

Study finds chiral structures, with mirror-image configurations, can emerge from nonchiral systems, suggesting new ways to engineer these materials.

The findings point to faster way to detect bacteria in food, water, and clinical samples.

Successes in the lab mostly don’t translate to people. Research models that better mimic the human body could close the gap.

This computational tool can generate an optimal design for a complex fluidic device such as a combustion engine or a hydraulic pump.

With NEET, Sherry Nyeo is discovering MIT’s undergraduate research community at the intersection of computer science and biological engineering.

Collaborative team wins prestigious NIH grant to investigate the physical forces that influence metastatic cancer.

The results may help engineers develop a way to inject drugs without needles.

A new medical device could offer a better way to detect blood clots, especially in children, researchers say.

When they encounter nutrient oases in the marine desert, marine bacteria release a gas involved in climate regulation.
