- Description
- A team of researchers at MIT fabricated ball-and-stick structures resembling tiny lollipops. The structures are less than a millimeter in height, with balls that are smaller than a grain of sand. The balls were infused with magnetic particles. When a magnet passes over the structures the lollipops pull toward the magnet in various degrees, in a configuration that mimicked gripping fingers.

- In his keynote “Defining the Next Era of Unreasonable Health Innovation,” Moderna co-founder and Flagship Pioneering CEO Noubar Afeyan opens with a provocative question: Why do we expect extraordinary outcomes from reasonable people doing reasonable things? He argues that many of tomorrow’s breakthroughs already exist today in “unreasonable” form, but are often overlooked or underfunded because they fall outside conventional thinking.
He also calls on scientists to “choose science” by championing the full breadth of the field, and introduces the concept of “poly-intelligence,” where human, machine, and natural intelligence converge to transform health science.
