MSU researchers are partnering with Irish institutions to develop next-generation wireless technology using targeted “communication pockets.” The approach aims to make 5G and 6G systems faster, more secure and more efficient.

MSU’s aviary research facility has helped egg producers adapt to changing animal welfare regulations. By studying hen behavior, housing systems and production, the facility provides science-based guidance to improve animal care and industry practices.

A team of Michigan State University researchers has developed a groundbreaking machine learning system capable of predicting nitrous oxide emissions from U.S. croplands with unprecedented accuracy, a finding with valuable implications for national greenhouse gas accounting and mitigation.

A new report from Michigan State University shows that anti-counterfeiting messages can backfire if people feel their freedom to choose a product is being threatened. When that happens, they often tune out the message, and efforts to change their buying habits don’t work.

New MSU research shows that virtual audiences can trigger real stress responses in public speakers. Even computer-generated avatars displaying negative feedback caused measurable increases in anxiety and physiological reactions.

MSU researchers have developed microscopic “TriMag” robots that could make medical treatments more precise and less invasive. The tiny devices can be guided through the body to deliver targeted therapies and destroy tumor cells.

When a cocaine addict relapses, it isn’t a matter of personal failure — it’s the biological result of their brain’s rewiring, new research finds. Scientists found that cocaine changes how the hippocampus functions, contributing to the compulsion to seek out the drug.
