Hopping gives this tiny robot a leg up
MIT engineers developed an insect-sized jumping robot that can traverse challenging terrains and carry heavy payloads.

MIT researchers developed a photon-shuttling “interconnect” that can facilitate remote entanglement, a key step toward a practical quantum computer.

With a new design, the bug-sized bot was able to fly 100 times longer than prior versions.

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.

Photonic processor could enable ultrafast AI computations with extreme energy efficiency
This new device uses light to perform the key operations of a deep neural network on a chip, opening the door to high-speed processors that can learn in real-time.

3 questions: Leveraging insights to enable clinical outcomes
Thomas Heldt, associate director of IMES, describes how he collaborates closely with MIT colleagues and others at Boston-area hospitals.

By emulating a magnetic field on a superconducting quantum computer, researchers can probe complex properties of materials.

The tiny device uses a tightly focused beam of light to capture and manipulate cells.
