Coronal sections of injured adult spinal cord, anterior to posterior. The labelling shows recombined ependymal cells and their progeny (white) migrating out to the injury area in the dorsal funiculus, as a reponse to the injury (injury is in the image on the right hand corner). The mouse is a FoxJ1-CreER x R26R-LacZ reporter.

This scanning tunneling microscope image of a bismuth superconducting compound shows a characteristic checkerboard pattern. The researchers believe this pattern indicates the presence of a charge density wave.

D-Lab student Raja Bobbili, a junior in electrical engineering, manned the crafts sale in Lobby 10 on Sept. 29, 2005, as part of MIT's International Development Forum. Students in MIT's D-Lab, a series of courses that focus on international development, bring back crafts from course field trips to Haiti, Honduras and other developing countries, sell them locally and send the proceeds back to the a...

Fact Sheet: MIT's solar concentrators

July 10, 2008

Organic solar concentrators collect and focus different colors of sunlight. Solar cells can be attached to the edges of the plates. By collecting light over their full surface and concentrating it at their edges, these devices reduce the required area of solar cells and consequently, the cost of solar power. Stacking multiple concentrators allows the optimization of solar cells at each wavelength,...
