MIT researchers have developed a method to restore natural movement in people with leg amputations above the knee. The team created a bionic knee that integrates with a patient's muscle and bone, enabling fluid motion and greater control.

Researchers have developed a way to use high-frequency electromagnetic waves to visualize objects that are hidden from view – such as a tool in a pile of junk or a vase in a cardboard box – with much greater accuracy than before.

Researchers at MIT have developed a way to 'supercharge' vaccines to the extent that just a single dose can provide strong protection from HIV. This approach could also help formulate protein-based vaccines to protect against influenza and SARS-CoV-2

Although AI-based restoration methods can indeed bring new life to damaged paintings, the end result is a digital copy of the original painting. By contrast, a new MIT technique applies repairs to the physical painting itself, in the form of a mask.

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated an entirely new form of magnetism in a synthesized crystalline material. They're calling it p-wave magnetism, and it could be the key to next-gen computer memory.

There are plenty of ways to suck water out of the air, whether you need a little or a lot. MIT researchers may have just hit upon one of the best ways to do it, with a new device that doesn't need power, or even a filter, to deliver drinking water.

Scientists have developed a fuel cell system which they say could ultimately have enough energy capacity to power regional electric aircraft. They state that the technology is capable of carrying over three times as much energy per unit of weight as a lithium-ion battery.

If you've ever looked into the living conditions of astronauts in space, you probably know they make do with spartan arrangements, including mostly rehydratable meals. Fermentation could help with making a wider variety of flavorful foods available.

Flying robots do have advantages over their ground-going counterparts, but they're not very energy-efficient. A new bot addresses that tradeoff by using a wing-assisted mechanism to hop instead of walking or flying in the traditional sense.

Researchers have developed a mind-blowing tool to not only create a digital twin of your childhood toys and other precious items, but also make them function like the real thing in mixed reality. It's the future of preserving the past.

Studies conducted by OpenAI and MIT Media Lab found a small percentage of test subjects who used ChatGPT extensively reported increased loneliness and emotional dependence, and reduced social interaction. What does that spell for such platforms?

Injection needles can be scary, and the larger ones for longer-term medications are far more intimidating. Researchers have created a better way to deliver drugs into patients' systems, and it involves turning those drugs into tiny crystals.
