Two research projects were listed among the nation’s top 10 emerging innovations by Technology Review magazine.
The 2009 version of the annual list from the MIT-published magazine, considered the oldest technology publication in existence, recognized a technique for improving Web access for people in developing nations and a method for more cheaply and quickly sequencing DNA.
The first was the product of Princeton University researchers and the second by a group from BioNanomatrix, a University City biotech firm.
