Core-shell structures made of hydrogel could enable more efficient uptake in the body.

An advanced closed-loop anesthesia delivery system that monitors brain state to tailor propofol dose and achieve exactly the desired level of unconsciousness could reduce post-op side effects.

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

Actuating grafts appears to turn on cell signals related to the growth of new blood vessels and nerves; a promising finding for restoring mobility in muscle lost through disease or trauma.

MIT computer scientists developed a way to calculate polygenic scores that makes them more accurate for people across diverse ancestries.

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.

Although computer scientists may initially treat data bias and error as a nuisance, researchers argue it’s a hidden treasure trove for reflecting societal values.

MIT researchers investigate the causes of health-care disparities among underrepresented groups.
