New coating protects nitrogen-fixing bacteria from heat and humidity, which could allow them to be deployed for large-scale agricultural use.

Thirteen new graduate student fellows will pursue exciting new paths of knowledge and discovery.

While useful for killing pathogens including SARS-CoV-2, the lights may cause unwanted chemical reactions and should be used with ventilation, researchers say.

Researchers can use the model to predict how engineered forms of insulin would perform in human patients, making it easier to bring these drugs to clinical trials.

The device contains encapsulated cells that produce insulin, plus a tiny oxygen-producing factory that keeps the cells healthy.

In a first, researchers have observed how lithium ions flow through a battery interface, which could help engineers optimize the material’s design.

MIT researchers work to transform truck powertrain design, with support from the MIT Climate and Sustainability Consortium.

The new approach could lead to intranasal vaccines for Covid-19 and other respiratory diseases.

MIT researchers are converting the plant material lignin into hydrocarbon molecules that could help make jet fuel 100 percent sustainable.

MIT researchers work to discover biodegradable polyesters, with support from the MIT Climate and Sustainability Consortium, J-WAFS, and DIC Corp.
