MIT engineers designed a pill that can report when it has been swallowed, an advance that could aid in medication adherence.

Biohybrid robots that run on real muscle are shifting from science fiction toward workable machines. In labs around the world, engineers have built tiny walkers, swimmers and gripping devices powered ...

Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) say that residential solar panels, batteries, electric vehicles, heat pumps, and water heaters could all form part of a local ...

At the bottom of a swimming pool on MIT’s campus, researchers keep testing a strange glider. The glider doesn’t have a propeller, nor does it resemble any known fish. It’s like a mix between a paper ...

MIT engineers have devised a new way to deliver certain drugs in higher doses with less pain, by injecting them as a suspension of tiny crystals. Once under the skin, the crystals assemble into a drug ...

MIT engineers have now found a way to fabricate a metamaterial that is both strong and stretchy. The base material is typically highly rigid and brittle, but it is printed in precise, intricate ...
