Richards-Kortum is a professor of bioengineering at Rice University , in Houston, and codirector of the Rice360 Institute for Global Health Technologies , which is developing affordable medical equipment for underresourced hospitals. Before, I had no idea that college professors did something called research.

Because sea levels and temperatures are rising, more than 80 percent of marine life is migrating toward the Earth’s poles and away from warmer water, he said. I don’t want anyone to be denied access to the Internet, whether it’s because they don’t have physical access or can’t afford the service,” Cerf said.

The discovery came when MIT researchers Byoungwoo Kang and Gerbrand Ceder found out how to get a common lithium compound to release and take up lithium ions in a matter of seconds. What I do need is an affordable alternative to Lead Acid. Like this post? Subscribe to our RSS feed and stay up to date. by RSS or sign up by email.

Researchers at MIT have devised a simple, soluble metal oxide system to capture and transform CO 2 into useful organic compounds. Molybdate is relatively abundant and stable in air and water. In the presence of excess carbon dioxide, a second molecule of CO 2 binds to afford a pseudo-octahedral dioxo dicarbonate complex, [MoO 2 (?

In a presentation at the 241 st National Meeting of the American Chemical Society today in Anaheim, Dr. Daniel Nocera of MIT said that his team has developed a practical “artificial leaf”—a type of solar cell that shows promise as an inexpensive source of electricity for the poor in developing countries.

The world’s first-to-market electric pickup truck, it turns out, isn’t from Ford, General Motors, or a late-to-market Tesla Cybertruck.

That kind of computing power was not affordable in the mid-1970s. Here I'll pick up the story as adapted from my narrative in A Biography of the Pixel , published this month by MIT Press. George has never really understood who we are, and he can no longer afford us. George and Marcia Lucas divorced in 1983.

The LT team will develop a gas fermentation process that leverages affordable, renewable hydrogen to capture and fix CO 2 directly into valuable fuels and chemicals. At commercial scale, the inputs to the proposed “carbon refinery” process are carbon-free renewable energy, water, and CO 2. Ohio State University.

Durable and affordable higher-temperature heat exchangers could make energy conversion much more efficient, which in turn could reduce fuel consumption, system footprint, capital and operational cost, and emissions. MIT will develop a high performance, compact, and durable ceramic heat exchanger. Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

They leased a few (at a loss) to those that could afford it. One wonders if the recent headway at MIT in building lithium ion cells using ?virus? Hybrids are a proven winner, but a series-hybrid (range extended EV), such as the Volt takes things to a much higher level with existing and "mostly" affordable tech.
