How artificial intelligence can help achieve a clean energy future

AI supports the clean energy transition as it manages power grid operations, helps plan infrastructure investments, guides development of novel materials, and more.

A new generative AI approach to predicting chemical reactions

System developed at MIT could provide realistic predictions for a wide variety of reactions, while maintaining real-world physical constraints.

A new model predicts how molecules will dissolve in different solvents

Solubility predictions could make it easier to design and synthesize new drugs, while minimizing the use of more hazardous solvents.

MIT gears up to transform manufacturing

The Initiative for New Manufacturing is convening experts across the Institute to drive a transformation of production across the U.S. and the world.

Confronting the AI/energy conundrum

The MIT Energy Initiative’s annual research symposium explores artificial intelligence as both a problem and a solution for the clean energy transition.

New model predicts a chemical reaction’s point of no return

Chemists could use this quick computational method to design more efficient reactions that yield useful compounds, from fuels to pharmaceuticals.

At the core of problem-solving

Stuart Levine ’97, director of MIT’s BioMicro Center, keeps departmental researchers at the forefront of systems biology.
