MIT’s CuRVE Technique Achieves Uniform Protein Labeling in Intact Tissues
A breakthrough in protein labeling has been introduced by MIT scientists, addressing challenges in studying intact tissues. Their method, CuRVE, allows antibodies to evenly distribute without damaging structure. The approach, combined with stochastic electrotransport, ensures rapid and uniform protein tagging. Tests on various tissues, including mo...

ELIZA Resurrected: World's First Chatbot Revived After 60 Years
ELIZA, the first-ever chatbot developed by MIT professor Joseph Weizenbaum in the 1960s, has been successfully revived using long-lost code. After being rediscovered in 2021, researchers restored the original software, which had been forgotten for 60 years. Despite its limitations, ELIZA was able to hold simple conversations, demonstrating how earl...

NASA's TESS Discovers Fastest Disintegrating Planet Ever Seen: What You Need to Know
NASA’s TESS has observed the closest and fastest disintegrating planet, BD+05 4868 Ab, located 141 light-years away. The planet loses a moon’s mass every million years as it is bombarded by its host star. Scientists are examining its massive dust trails, offering rare insights into the composition of terrestrial exoplanets. Researchers from MIT...

Astronomers Discover Unusual X-Ray Oscillations From a Black Hole 100 Million Light-Years Away
A supermassive black hole 100 million light-years away is showing an unprecedented increase in X-ray oscillations, starting from 18-minute intervals and accelerating to 7 minutes in just two years. Astronomers believe a white dwarf, orbiting perilously close to the event horizon, is causing these flashes. The findings offer a glimpse into black hol...

Scientists Find the Origin of a Mysterious Fast Radio Burst With a Unique Technique
Researchers have pinpointed the origin of fast radio burst FRB 20221022A to within 10,000 kilometres of a neutron star. Using scintillation analysis, a team from MIT determined that the burst emerged from the magnetosphere, a highly magnetic and chaotic environment surrounding the star. This discovery marks the first conclusive evidence of FRBs ori...

Microsoft Releases AIOpsLab, an Open-Source Standardised AI Framework for AIOps Agents
Microsoft researchers released an open-source artificial intelligence (AI) framework for agents that operate in cloud environments. Dubbed AIOpsLab, it is a principled research framework that enables developers to build, test, compare, and improve AIOps agents. The framework is supported by Azure AI Agent Service. The AIOpsLab uses an intermediary ...

MIT Researchers Measure Quantum Geometry of Electrons in Solid Materials for First Time
Physicists at MIT have successfully measured the quantum geometry of electrons in solids, marking a pivotal moment in quantum research. This was achieved using an advanced adaptation of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), enabling direct observation of quantum properties that were previously theoretical. The study, featured in Nature...
