Based on work from MIT, has developed novel chemistries that can preserve biomolecules outside of freezers. 鈥淏iotech has been addicted to the cold chain for more than 50 years now,鈥 says co-founder James Banal. 鈥淲hy hasn鈥檛 that changed?鈥
Technologies developed at MIT Lincoln Laboratory have won seven R&D 100 Awards for 2025. Inventions that protect U.S. service members, advance computing, and enhance communications were recognized among the year鈥檚 most significant new products.
Researchers at MIT have developed the first full map of the quantum landscape that constrains how electrons move inside matter. New Scientist wrote: 鈥淎 new view of what actually happens inside materials is bound to lead to new ways to improve them.鈥澨
An MIT-developed AI system provides realistic predictions for a wide variety of chemical reactions. 鈥淎 lot of the excitement is in using this kind of system to help discover new complex reactions and elucidate new mechanisms,鈥 says Connor Coley.

MIT has been named a top school for return on investment. CNBC noted that as of this year, 鈥渇amilies earning $200,000 a year or less will pay $0 for tuition and families earning $100,000 or less will have fees like housing and meals covered as well.鈥
In a world without MIT, radar wouldn鈥檛 have been available to help win World War II. We might not have email, CT scans, time-release drugs, photolithography, or GPS. And we鈥檇 lose over 30,000 companies, employing millions of people. Can you imagine?
鈥婼ince its founding, MIT has been key to helping American science and innovation lead the world. Discoveries that begin here generate jobs and power the economy 鈥 and what we create today builds a better tomorrow for all of us.
