Storing Medical Information Below the Skin’s Surface

Specialized invisible dye, delivered along with a vaccine, could enable “on-patient” storage of vaccination history to save lives in regions where paper or digital...

Controlling how “odd couple” Surfaces and Liquids Interact

Spread out or bead up? A new process enables control over liquid-solid interfaces even with the most unlikely pairs of materials. David Chandler | MIT News Office The...

New Lightweight Material is Stronger than Steel

The new substance is the result of a feat thought to be impossible: polymerizing a material in two dimensions. Using a novel polymerization process, MIT...

Engineers develop surgical “duct tape” as an alternative to sutures

A staple on any engineer’s workbench, duct tape is a quick and dependable fix for cracks and tears in many structural materials. MIT engineers...

AI to Help Scale up Advanced Solar Cell Manufacturing

Perovskite materials would be superior to silicon in PV cells, but manufacturing such cells at scale is a huge hurdle. Machine learning can help. David...
