In the most recent episode of Building 32, Popescu explains how her research sits at the intersection of computational design, digital fabrication, and structural engineering.
Researchers from the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST), Korea, in collaboration with researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (MIT CSAIL), have developed “EMSWalker,” a new VR locomotion system that provides walking-related bodily sensations while the user remains seated.
RNA vaccines, which have been proven effective against Covid-19, are now being developed for many other diseases, including cancer. One of the drawbacks to these vaccines is that they require ultracold storage, but researchers from MIT have found a promising way to overcome that limitation.
Researchers created a new technique that accurately and rapidly matches X-rays captured during surgery with a patient’s preoperative 3D medical scan. This method could make it easier for clinicians to precisely pilot minimally invasive surgical tools, leading to faster and safer procedures.
This event is offered by TNT, and open to the CSAIL Alliances community
TNT, the startup community and accelerator for MIT and Harvard, is hosting Building in Deep Tech, a panel with Silicon Valley Bank, with a mixer after. If you're building something hard, hardware, bio, energy, or AI at the research edge, this room is for you.
A region of the brain called the striatum is critical for many cognitive and motor functions, including decision-making, control of movement, habit formation, and processing of reward. It also plays a role in addiction and is significantly affected by Huntington’s disease, schizophrenia, and other disorders.
Daniela Rus, Director of MIT CSAIL and the Panasonic Professor of Computer Science, has received the 2026 High-Tech Prize of the Bavarian Minister-President for her contributions to robotics, artificial intelligence, and autonomous systems.
An algorithm flags a patient as high risk for sepsis; a risk score informs whether a woman receives additional cancer screening; a deterioration model triggers an alert that sends a care team to a bedside.
To accelerate and refine decision-making in a fast-paced, global marketplace, enterprises may deploy generative artificial intelligence models to help summarize and interpret the charts that often fill market summaries and financial reports.
