A new analysis offers guidance on the size of nanoparticles that could be most effective at stopping internal bleeding.

A pill that releases RNA in the stomach could offer a new way to administer vaccines, or to deliver therapies for gastrointestinal disease.

The new pill can inject large quantities of monoclonal antibodies and other drugs into the lining of the stomach after being swallowed.

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

MIT researchers employ machine learning to find powerful peptides that could improve a gene therapy drug for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

MIT engineers used kirigami-style etching to design a stent that can temporarily lodge in tubular organs to release drugs.

Chemical engineers have found a way to load more drug into a tablet, which could then be made smaller and easier to swallow.

Structural biologist Pamela Björkman shared insights into pandemic viruses as part of the Department of Biology’s IAP seminar series.

The discovery can help to cure bacterial infections without inducing resistance or causing harm to good bacteria.

The novel approach, developed by MIT chemical engineers, could help create more efficient consumer products, including drugs, cosmetics, and food.
