Researchers discover a shortcoming that makes LLMs less reliable December 2, 2025 Large language models can learn to mistakenly link certain sentence patterns with specific topics — and may then repeat these patterns instead of reasoning. IMES community profile: Aarti Krishnan November 25, 2025 Interdisciplinary scientist Aarti Krishnan grew up in India, has studied in Switzerland, and is now a postdoc at the Collins Lab, where she is combining her research interests in computational and experimental approaches to drug discovery. Particles that enhance mRNA delivery could reduce vaccine dosage and costs November 25, 2025 Using these nanoparticles to deliver a flu vaccine, researchers, including from IMES, observed an effective immune response at a much lower dose. Phil Sharp-Alnylam Fund for Emerging Scientists to support MIT biology graduate students and faculty November 25, 2025 Alnylam Pharmaceuticals establishes named fund in honor of its co-founder, an MIT Institute Professor and Nobel laureate, and an IMES faculty member. This is your brain without sleep October 30, 2025 New research shows attention lapses due to sleep deprivation coincide with a flushing of fluid from the brain — a process that normally occurs during sleep. School of Engineering welcomes new faculty in 2024-25 October 29, 2025 The newest MIT engineering faculty, including at IMES, are conducting research across a diverse range of subject areas. Professor Ioannis Yannas, pioneer of regenerative medicine who invented artificial skin for the treatment of severe burns, dies at 90 October 28, 2025 A beloved member of the Department of Mechanical Engineering for nearly 60 years, and an HST faculty member, Yannas helped saved the lives of thousands of burn victims through his research and innovation. IMES community profile: Emily Loveland October 28, 2025 Emily Loveland is an HST Academic Programs Specialist who enjoys working with students, and tackles a wide range of duties for the HST academic office. In a surprising discovery, scientists find tiny loops in the genomes of dividing cells October 20, 2025 Enabled by a new high-resolution mapping technique, the findings overturn a long-held belief that the genome loses its 3D structure when cells divide. Three questions for Tania Lopez Silva: Developing advanced biomaterials for biomedical applications September 26, 2025 Tania Lopez Silva designs advanced biomaterials that mimic and interact with the immune system and other biological environments.
