Future models of consumer goods, from digital cameras to MP3 players, could take a leap forward with a new type of analog circuit demonstrated at a trade show Thursday by researchers from the ...

What if our cells could be programmed to detect an imminent heart attack and warn us in time to get to the doctor before it happens? Or perhaps they could sense falling blood sugar in diabetics and ...

The researchers claim their circuits outperformed all baselines including circuits hand-designed by humans and those made using other computational methods. MIT researchers claim to have developed a ...

People with Parkinson’s disease experience problems with body movement, motor cognition and mood. Aiming to pinpoint the neuronal elements responsible for these symptoms, a research team led by ...

MIT researchers produce complex electronic circuits from molybdenum disulfide, a material that could have many more applications than graphene. The discovery of graphene, a material just one atom ...

MIT's first MOOC, "6.002x Circuits and Electronics" According to Class Central, the course, which launched on March 5, 2012, drew 155,000 learners from around the world. Students were "blown away" by ...

Previous work on using organisms as circuitry has usually involved shoehorning parts of the digital world into a very analog environment. MIT has just found an approach that uses the subtlety of the ...

Schematic model showing how memory is consolidated in the prefrontal cortex and how circuitry through the amygdala shifts as hippocampal engram cells become silent and cortical engrams become active.

It's easy to find work on gene-based storage; finding genes that will do any of the heavy lifting is another matter. MIT believes it has a genetic circuit that will finally get to work, and then some.

Synthetic biology offers a way to engineer cells to perform novel functions, such as glowing with fluorescent light when they detect a certain chemical. Usually, this is done by altering cells so they ...

Comparator-based switched capacitor (CBSC) circuit can be manufactured with smaller size and better power efficiency than traditional analog circuits Future models of consumer goods, from digital ...
