Curious? Don’t miss the Research Slam Showcase on April 23!

Get ready to be blown away by the latest and greatest research projects coming out of MIT! Join us at the MIT Wong Auditorium on April 23 from 5-7pm for an exciting showcase of innovative ideas, cutting-edge technology, and mind-blowing discoveries: The 2025 MIT Research Slam Showcase.

Hear in-person engaging presentations from the brilliant minds of MIT PhDs & postdocs! Presenters explain their research to a curious, non-specialist audience in ≤3 minutes (strictly enforced) using one slide with no animation, video, or props. This format was created by University of Queensland (UQ) in 2008 and quickly spread across the globe. Now this competition is offered in more than 200 universities in more than 85 countries of the world.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about scientific discoveries unfolding right here in Cambridge, MA, and join to celebrate these excellent speakers at a reception after the event.
