Injectable nanodevices could provide effective treatment for drug-resistant glioblastoma (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The brain cancer glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive and treatment-resistant cancers known to medicine, carrying a median survival of just 12-15 months, even with the best available care. Now, researchers at the MIT Media Lab have developed injectable nanoantennas, each about one-hundredth the width of human hair, that can be magnetically activated to create localized therapeutic electric fields that target and kill brain cancer cells without damaging healthy brain tissue. “In laboratory
How MIT Sandbox has turned student ideas into $8.7 billion in global impact (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Although Jacob Becraft had two swings and two misses when he first tried to become an entrepreneur as a graduate student, the MIT Sandbox Innovation Fund Program allowed him to keep at it. This especially benefited cancer patients, as Becraft went on to co-found Strand Therapeutics: a $550-million firm whose programmable mRNA drug has shrunk tumors in patients who had exhausted all other treatment options. Stories like Becraft’s took center stage at the recent 10-year anniversary celebration of
Following the questions where they lead (opens the original)

Ever since she was a child playing on her family’s farmland in Wisconsin, Bailey Flanigan was guided by her own selective, yet wide-ranging, curiosity. Describing her young self as spirited and a bit unruly, she directed her energies to everything from building booby traps to doing experimental construction projects to exploring an intense interest in medicine to writing fiction and music to planning nonprofit organizations to help lessen social inequality. By high school, Flanigan was intensely
