Paradigm Shifts: From Biology to Technology to Medical Applications
After years of working out the genetic and molecular machinery of cancer, scientists are gaining significant ground on the disease, and are on the verge of a new generation of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. Three researchers who have spearheaded this biomedical revolution describe how increasingly fast and cost-effective techn
Personalized Cancer Care
In the final of four symposia on pathbreaking cancer research, Tyler Jacks expresses “great optimism that we’re getting close, that we can see over the horizon...and we will be successful in controlling the disease in the not too distant future.” Personalized medicine will pave the way to this future, explains moderator Mic
The Status of Women in Science and Engineering at MIT
It’s difficult to imagine that at one point in her career, National Academy of Science member Nancy Hopkins thought to quit. In her talk, she relates the historical challenges facing women in science and engineering at MIT, the university’s responses to these problems, and how in the end Hopkins avoided becoming a poster child o
Air Pollution Trends and Impacts: Assessing Transportation in Context of Global Change
It is a complicated matter mapping the movement of pollution in the atmosphere, but Noelle Eckley Selin models not just the chemistry of the atmosphere as it absorbs emissions and responds to climate change, but its potential impact over time on human health and world economies. She takes a systems approach “to understanding
Academic Leaders: Perspectives and Current Challenges
Two influential academic leaders, both holding a significant place in MIT’s history, reflect on efforts to achieve gender equity in science and engineering at MIT and other institutions of higher learning.
“In spite of steps to promote diversity, underrepresentation of women at all faculty levels persists,” says Shirl
Celebrating Science and Engineering Breakthroughs II
Four women who have made ground-breaking contributions in different disciplines describe their research, which has not only involved ‘thinking outside the box,’ but in some cases persevering in the face of skepticism.
Two presenters work on the frontier of biological systems and materials science, and find both inspiration and
Celebrating Science and Engineering Breakthroughs I
Three eminent scientists in biology and medical engineering discuss their pioneering work at MIT -- a research base they regard as unmatched for its collaborative environment and enthusiasm for even the most marginal and offbeat ideas. Moderator and colleague Hazel Sive hails these speakers as among those who have helped “move wo
Celebrating Science and Engineering Breakthroughs III
Although these three speakers travel in quite disparate worlds -- natural language processing, mechanics of tiny organisms, and violent cosmic events -- they convey a comparably infectious enthusiasm for their research.
In the early days of artificial intelligence, “people had the naïve idea that if you took a computer, and fe
The Future Automotive System: The World That Changed The Machine
The world economic order has shifted considerably since 1990, when Daniel Roos and his coauthors wrote The Machine that Changed the World, the story of lean production in the auto industry. Once dominant as a global industry, car manufacturing “has undergone tremendous stress,” says Roos, and has now reached an “infle
Shaping Policy in Academia and Across the Nation
Issues of work/life balance and campus climate dominate this panel looking at policies to foster and retain girls and women in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics). As moderator
Marc Kastner notes, in spite of dramatic improvements at places like MIT, significant challenges remain.
