In recent years, healthcare institutions have invested tremendous resources in digitizing patient information, converting handwritten medical notes into comprehensive electronic health records. However, merely accumulating this data represents only a fraction of the challenge. The real difficulty l[more]
For half a century, MIT students have embraced the Independent Activities Period (IAP), a distinctive mini-semester spanning just four weeks, strategically positioned between fall and spring terms. This year, despite the pandemic necessitating a virtual format, the essence of innovative exploration[more]
Virtual reality headsets have struggled for years to replace conventional screens as the primary medium for visual content. A significant barrier has been the discomfort experienced by users - nausea and eye strain often result from VR's attempt to simulate 3D viewing while actually displaying fixe[more]
Creating effective vaccines against rapidly evolving viruses like influenza and HIV has presented one of medicine's most persistent challenges. These pathogens continuously adapt through "viral escape," a process that allows them to evade immune detection by altering their surface proteins, renderi[more]
