In research that could jumpstart work on technologies including fuel cells, key to storing solar and wind energy, MIT researchers have found a relatively simple way to increase the lifetimes of these devices: changing the “pH” of the system.
MIT research identified cells that span brain hemispheres to coordinate activity in visual processing centers and showed that Alzheimer’s degrades their structure, disrupting cross-hemisphere communication and therefore a form of visual memory.
A new device can detect Parkinson's disease just from breathing patterns. The device, developed by a team led by Dina Katabi of MIT, employs a neural network to discern the presence and severity of the neurological disease.
Mary Ellen Zurko is applying her expertise in user-centered security to her work in countering influence operations at MIT Lincoln Laboratory.
An MIT team reports a giant response of semiconductors to light and explains the atomic origins of the phenomenon. The materials’ stiffness increases up to 40 percent in the reversible effect.
