MIT Media Lab: Jimmy Day

Let's tell the stories of the MIT Media Lab's transformative innovation + creativity—where technology empowers everyone to flourish.

Welcome to the MIT Media Lab's press page. Our researchers explore a broad and interdisciplinary range of transformational future technologies related to fields like AI in healthcare, sustainability and climate, future of cities, space, data and privacy, and more. We can provide subject matter expertise in critical areas affecting society and the planet, as well as visual materials and peer reviewed research findings.

Current research topics 

While our researchers are working and studying at the Media Lab, they can offer insights on certain subject areas based on their research, including: 

  • Artificial intelligence 
  • Creativity
  • Data + privacy
  • Election season topics (misinformation, social media, deepfakes, etc.)
  • Health + wellness
  • Public health + policy 
  • Sustainability + climate change 
  • Wearables

If you would like to speak to a Media Lab researcher on these topics or others, please contact the Media Lab Communications team at press@media.mit.edu.
