Key Takeaways Harvard engineers have built a chip-scale, twisted bilayer photonic crystal whose twist angle and spacing can be dynamically adjusted with a MEMS actuator to tune the chirality of light.

Why pursue a bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics? The Applied Mathematics concentration consists of a broad undergraduate education in the mathematical sciences, especially in those subjects that ...

Shmuel Rubinstein will visit the Area of Applied Physics at SEAS. Rubinstein is a Professor of Physics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (“HUJI”) where he has been a faculty member since 2020.

The original SWIFT method (left) printed hollow channels through living OBBs (green), but had no structure to contain fluid as it flowed through. Co-SWIFT (right) creates a cell-laden vessel (red) ...

Materials in nature are rarely straight. In our bodies, proteins assemble into helical filaments which allow our muscles to contract. Plants change shape because cellulose fibers are arranged ...

Key Takeaways Harvard researchers have created a soft, wearable robotic device that provides personalized movement assistance for individuals with upper-limb impairment, such as stroke and ALS ...

In two papers — published today in Environmental Research Letters and Joule — Harvard University researchers find that the transition to wind or solar power in the United States would require five to ...

Within the sphere of the SEAS mission, the Active Learning Labs fosters an environment in which student learning and support extend beyond the classroom. We partner with SEAS faculty to execute their ...

Key Takeaways Harvard SEAS and MIT researchers developed kirigami-inspired shoe grips that pop up like snake scales to increase traction and reduce fall risk, particularly for older adults. The thin ...

“Our research shows that the solid-state battery could be fundamentally different from the commercial liquid electrolyte lithium-ion battery,” said Li. “By studying their fundamental thermodynamics, ...

In a new study, Harvard University researchers find over 90 percent of potential new Canadian hydroelectric projects are likely to increase concentrations of the neurotoxin methylmercury in food webs ...

Engineering plays a critical role in enhancing social progress and improving our quality of life, and rapid and efficient access to new innovations is necessary to tackle myriad challenges. The SEAS ...
