In a @NatureComms paper, @mit_dmse and @mit_nse researchers have created a multimodal AI model that can identify optimal crystalline materials for various applications.
A team, including researchers in @MIT_IMES and @MITEECS, has shown that exposure to short bursts of a gentle, staticky sound known as “pink noise” can strengthen the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, which clears debris from the brain and keeps it healthy.

In a @naturemethods paper, a team, including engineers in @MITdeptofBE, has invented a new microscope that can image electrical activity in neurons distributed across the brain of an entire organism.
A team, including researchers in @mit_dmse, is looking into ways of using electrochemistry to produce ammonia, one of the world’s most important chemicals used mostly to make fertilizer.
