Experts in energy systems modeling and fusion technology explore the future role of fusion at various costs and carbon constraints.

In parallel, MIT and Universidad del Valle de Guatemala students seek to advance local innovation by and for Guatemalan communities.

Mesenchymal stromal cells are an attractive alternative to current costly, time-intensive treatments.

Using the James Webb Telescope, researchers at MIT have found quasars, “some of the brightest objects in the cosmos, adrift in the empty voids of space.” This “cosmic quandary is not just about how these quasars formed in isolation, but how they formed so rapidly.”  

Professor Jessika Trancik discusses the future of electric vehicles and how shifting to EVs can help reduce carbon emissions. Trancik and her research lab developed an online tool, dubbed Carboncounter, that can analyze the climate impact of different vehicles. “A shift to an electric vehicle is one of the single most impactful decisions that someone can make if they want to reduce their own emissions,” explains Trancik.
