MIT researchers plan to search for proteins that could be used to measure electrical activity in the brain. To engineer proteins with useful functions, researchers usually begin with a natural protein that has a desirable function, such as emitting fluorescent light, and put it through many round
For the 10th consecutive year, MIT ranks No. 2 among all colleges and No. 1 among colleges with one main campus in the number of patents granted. MIT's Technology Licensing Office (TLO) bridges groundbreaking research to societal impact through patents and innovation.
A new computational approach developed at MIT makes it easier to predict mutations that will lead to optimized proteins, based on a relatively small amount of data.
By tagging molecules in a cell with fluorescent labels that switch on and off, MIT engineers can study their interaction to learn more about how cells operate.
Boston MA (SPX) Feb 02, 2024 - Using a novel microscopy technique, MIT and Brigham and Women's Hospital/Harvard Medical School researchers have imaged human brain tissue in greater detail than ever before, revealing cells and str
