2024-25 EECS Student Award Roundup
This ongoing listing of awards and recognitions won by our students is added to all year, beginning in September.
Daniela Rus named to French National Academy of Medicine
As the Director of MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), Rus leads over 1,700 researchers in pioneering innovations to advance computing and improve global well-being.
How hard is it to prevent recurring blackouts in Puerto Rico?
Using the island as a model, researchers demonstrate the “DyMonDS” framework can improve resiliency to extreme weather and ease the integration of new resources.
Images that transform through heat
The Thermochromorph printmaking technique developed by CSAIL researchers allows images to transition into each other through changes in temperature.
Researchers at MIT, NYU, and UCLA develop an approach to help evaluate whether large language models like GPT-4 are equitable enough to be clinically viable for mental health support.
MIT affiliates receive 2025 IEEE honors
Five MIT faculty and staff, along with five alumni, are honored for electrical engineering and computer science advances.
Lara Ozkan named 2025 Marshall Scholar
The MIT senior will pursue graduate studies in the UK at Cambridge University and Imperial College London.
MIT researchers introduce Boltz-1, a fully open-source model for predicting biomolecular structures
With models like AlphaFold3 limited to academic research, the team built an equivalent alternative, to encourage innovation more broadly.
AI in health should be regulated, but don’t forget about the algorithms, researchers say
In a recent commentary, a team from MIT, Equality AI, and Boston University highlights the gaps in regulation for AI models and non-AI algorithms in health care.
Noninvasive imaging method can penetrate deeper into living tissue
Using high-powered lasers, this new method could help biologists study the body’s immune responses and develop new medicines.
