Cambridge, Massachusetts - The Massachusetts Institute of Technology has contracted with iMarc L.L.C. to develop an extensive site that will facilitate the sharing of research developed by MIT scientists and researchers. The site will draw on iMarc's extensive experience designing and building custom content management tools.
