MIT engineers solve the sticky-cell problem in bioreactors and other indust...

To test their setup, researchers allowed algae cells to stick to the surface of the photobioreactor. When they applied a voltage, the bubbles separated the cells from the surfaces without harming them.

Why some quantum materials stall while others scale

MIT researchers have developed a system for evaluating the scale-up potential of quantum materials. Their data-driven framework combines a material’s quantum behavior with its cost, supply chain resilience, environmental footprint, and other factors.

Fighting for the health of the planet with AI

“Machine learning is already really widely used for things like solar power forecasting, which is a prerequisite to managing and balancing power grids,” says EECS assistant professor and LIDS PI Priya Donti. “My focus is: How do you improve the algorithms for actually balancing power grids in the face of a range of time-varying renewables?”

Concrete “battery” developed at MIT now packs 10 times the power

An electron-conducting carbon concrete (ec³)-based arch structure integrates supercapacitor electrodes for dual functionality. The prototype demonstrates both structural load bearing and the ability to power an LED, with the light’s intensity varying under applied load, highlighting the potential for real-time structural health monitoring via the supercapacitor.
