Postdoc Shaniel Bowen studies women's sexual anatomy and health while also working to interest young women in STEM careers.

Most antibiotics target metabolically active bacteria, but with artificial intelligence, researchers can efficiently screen compounds that are lethal to dormant microbes.

New modular, spring-like devices maximize the work of live muscle fibers so they can be harnessed to power biohybrid bots.

An MRI method purported to detect neurons’ rapid impulses produces its own misleading signals instead, an MIT study finds.

MIT researchers plan to search for proteins that could be used to measure electrical activity in the brain.

Researchers also found that a variant of the protein is not as protective against the bacteria and increases susceptibility to the disease.

Joining three teams backed by a total of $75 million, MIT researchers will tackle some of cancer’s toughest challenges.

Professor Ernest Fraenkel has decoded fundamental aspects of Huntington’s disease and glioblastoma, and is now using computation to better understand amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

MIT spinout Elicio developed a vaccine based on a lymph node-targeting approach first developed at the Koch Institute. Phase 1 solid tumor clinical trial results are promising so far.

A new microscopy technique that enables high-resolution imaging could one day help doctors diagnose and treat brain tumors.
