The materials needed to create the seed coating are already available in the food industry, but more research is needed before this becomes widespread.
A new model to predict the exposure risk of COVID-19 has been developed by professors at MIT. The model takes into account risk factors like ventilation.
MIT researchers have been investigating the most convenient locations for charging points which would maximize the number of electric vehicles on the road.
A team from MIT is working on an open-source, low-cost ventilator design to help meet increased global demand as a result of coronavirus.
Research shows that improving handwashing rates at just 10 major, carefully selected, airports could significantly slow the outbreak of a viral disease.
A study by MIT researchers reveals a more efficient method for error correction, potentially opening up quantum technology to more practical applications.
A new lithium metal anode could increase the longevity and energy density of batteries.
MIT engineers have created a special seed coating that supplies essential nutrients to the germinating plant and helps it grow in barren areas.
Systems of tiny robots may someday build high-performance structures, from airplanes to space settlements.
A study has proven how solar panels with a lifetime of ten years can open doors to new technologies that previous panels have been unable to do.
CO2 is a big contributor to green house gases, which the construction industry plays a big role in. Now, MIT researchers have discovered a way of making carbon free cement.
With so many differing interests and inequality between countries, its no surprise they fail to agree on or meet environmental targets due to clashing interests.
Method for collecting two electrons from each photon could break through theoretical solar-cell efficiency limit.
Self-assembling materials can form patterns that might be useful in optical devices.
New research has found that seagrass could play a key role in protecting vulnerable shores from rising sea levels.
